Mildred Delores Jeter was born on July 22, 1939, in Central Point, Virginia. Daniel P. Schwartz, the former director of the Yale psychiatric hospital, directed Austen Riggs from 1978 to 1991, and oversaw the hospital in an era in which both managed care and biological psychiatry came to dominate the field, and in which many hospitals focusing on long-term psychotherapy – including Chestnut Lodge, the McLean Hospital, the Westchester Division of New York-Presbyterian Hospital, Timberlawn, Sheppard Pratt, and Menninger's—changed their missions.

Cohen and Hirschkop took the Lovings' case to the Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals.
When Mildred became pregnant at the age of 18, the couple decided to get married.
However Virginia's Racial Integrity Act of 1924 (known as an anti-miscegenation law) barred the Lovings from marrying in their home state, so the couple drove north to Washington, D.C. to tie the knot and then returned to their home in Caroline County, Virginia.
The Civil Rights Movement was blossoming into real change in America and, upon advice from her cousin, Mildred wrote Attorney General Robert Kennedy to ask for his assistance. As a girl, she was so skinny she was nicknamed "String Bean," which was eventually shortened to "Bean" by her future husband.
