Born in Portage Lake, Maine, Barker attended St. John's Academy in Presque Isle, before spending two years at St. Catherine's Hall, an Episcopal school in Augusta.[1] She then studied at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston; her instructors included Frank Weston Benson, Alger V. Currier, Philip Leslie Hale, and Edmund Charles Tarbell.[2] Associated with the American Impressionists, she kept a studio in Boston from 1898 until her marriage to Roy Barker in 1906. After motherhood, in 1929, she resumed her career in Maine, working in Presque Isle.[3] She is buried in that town's Fairmount Cemetery; her daughter claimed that she literally died "with a paint brush in her hand".[4]

A drawing of Alice Tobey by Barker is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art,[5] and her work is also owned by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco[6] and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.[7] One of her pieces is in the Cathedral Church of St. Luke in Portland.[2] A collection of her papers, donated by her daughter, is owned by the Archives of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution.[3]
