She married Leonard Trujillo (1936–2017) of Cochiti Pueblo. Mary learned to create storyteller figurines from her mother-in-law, Helen Cordero, who is widely credited with reviving and popularizing the modern Storyteller form in the 1960s (inspired by traditional Pueblo figurative pottery). Leonard collaborated with her on many pieces, especially from the 1980s onward.\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003eThe couple became respected for producing high-quality, often larger-scale figurines. Their work appears in major collections like the Heard Museum and the School of American Research.
