Loraine Schorsch was born June 12, 1931 at Havelock, the daughter of Joe and Eva (Mesling) Schorsch. She was raised and educated in New England, graduating from New England High School in 1949.

Loraine was united in marriage to Richard Selinger on November 29, 1951 at Camp Rucker in Alabama, while he was stationed there.
