Always seeking the best from herself, Zinita went back to school and earned a second Master's Degree in Library Science at the University of North Texas.As a native Texan, she heard Anglo-Texas folklore from her childhood days. She became interested in actively researching folklore when she taught for a time in South Texas and came in contact with Mexican-American folklore and how real it was to many of her students. Mrs. Fowler was well known as a master storyteller and leader of folk dancing and singing games. She is a published author of professional journals, magazines, poems, plays, and books.

Professional memberships included the Tejas Storytelling Association and the Poetry Society of Texas. Mrs. Fowler won the Siddie Joe Johnson Award in 1982, presented by the Texas Library Association for excellence in children's librarianship.
