From 1952 into the 1970s, Hogan was a research chemist at the Army's Clothing, Equipment, and Materials Engineering Laboratory in Natick, Massachusetts. Her research involved textiles and their properties of repelling or absorbing environmental hazards in combat settings. She "developed the analytical method for determining chrome content of feathers and down." She was a member of the American Leather Chemists Association beginning in 1955. == Publications ==

Professional publications by Hogan included articles in Textile Research Journal, Journal of the American Leather Chemists Association, and Analytical Chemistry. • "A Rapid Sole Leather Tannage with Aldehydes" (1958, with Ludwig Seligsberger and C.W. Mann) • "Determination of bis (2-chloroethyl) sulfide in a Dawson apparatus by gas chromatography" (1972, with R. L. Erickson, R. N. MacNair and R. H. Brown) • Feasibility Study to Determine the Fluorine Content in Quarpel-treated Fabrics by Analysis with a 14 MeV Neutron Activation Source (1972, with Forest C. Burns and Gil M. Dias) • "Sorptive Textile Systems Containing Activated Carbon Fibers" (1974, with Gilbert N. Arons, Richard N. MacNair, and Laurance G. Coffin) == Personal life ==

Clayton married John Daniel Hogan in 1967, in Massachusetts; her husband died in 1973. She lived with her mother in Jobstown, New Jersey in the 1980s. She died in Cumming, Georgia, in 2017, aged 92 years. == References ==
