McDonald was born in Rock Island, Illinois. After studies in Chicago and New York City, at age 15 she entered the Conservatoire de Paris, where she studied with Henriette Renié and Lily Laskine〔Album notes for ''Jan Ladislav Dussek: Sonatas for Harp (Complete)'', Orion Records ORS 7153, LP, 1971〕 and in 1955 was the first American to win the Premiere Prix de Harpe.〔(Biographical note for McDonald, Susann and Linda Wood Rollo, ''Harp for Today: A Universal Method for the Harp'', listing at Harpcenter.com accessed November 22, 2009 )〕 Not long thereafter, she was a winner in the first International Harp Competition in Israel; in 1970, she returned to the competition as a judge. Around this time she also had an audience with Juliana of the Netherlands following a recital at the Concertgebouw.〔
From her early years, McDonald toured widely; besides Israel and the Netherlands, her travels took her to South America and Canada for recitals and to Europe for radio and television broadcasts.

She is the artistic director of the World Harp Congress and the honorary president of the Association Internationale des Harpistes,〔 and she founded and is the music director of the USA International Harp Competition.〔 Past students include Nancy Allen, Erzsébet Gaál, Cristina Braga, Şirin Pancaroğlu, Anna-Maria Ravnopolska-Dean, María Luisa Rayan-Forero, Jessica Suchy-Pilalis, JoAnn Turovsky,〔 Naoko Yoshino, Kristie Smith, and Natalie Salzman.
