Born in 1857, she was the daughter of the clergyman John Harding and his wife Louise, née Elmer. Sources indicate that she was educated at a school in Bristol and later lived in Wiltshire, where her father served as vicar of Martin.

She worked as a poet and novelist, and was active in the late nineteenth century. Her known books include A Mountain Daisy (1878), Hazel; or, Perilpoint Lighthouse, and A Noble Sacrifice, fiction associated with Victorian popular reading and domestic drama.

Emily Grace Harding died in 1904. While detailed biographical records appear limited, her work survives through library and digital archive listings, giving modern readers a glimpse of a once-active Victorian author.
