DeHart calls herself a fighter for issues affecting working people - partly because of her working- class childhood. Born in Wayne, she was one of Bill and Dora Johnson's seven children. DeHart's father retired from Ford Motor Co.'s Wayne Assembly plant and was a union activist. Her mother was a restaurant cook and waitress. Neither is alive.
