==Education and early career==
McKenna was born in Montréal, Québec in 1950. She graduated from The Study, a Canadian private education all-girls school in Westmount, Quebec in 1968 and was honoured by The Study in 2008 with the Judy Elder Alumna Award. To the students of The Study, she explained her choice to pursue architecture as follows: “I originally saw the profession as a balance between creative and business skills. I found out quite early that it is much more than that. It is a creative profession but requires the leadership skills of innovator, arbitrator, negotiator, communicator, along with strong design talent and business acumen. The pleasure of architecture is in the range of challenges that only increase from day to day." 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thestudy.qc.ca/alumnae/profiles/class-of-68-marianne-mckenna-architect )〕

At Yale University, she also met and became lifelong friends with then aspiring actress Meryl Streep. Streep shared insights on Marianne’s career as an architect in the 2014 documentary "Making Space: 5 Women Changing the Face of Architecture".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3452742/ )〕
