Cameron worked at the Scottish Record Office and in 1938 married George Dunlop, proprietor of the Kilmarnock Standard.[1]

Marcus Merriman, a historian of the Rough Wooing, acknowledged Annie Cameron, Marguerite Wood, and Gladys Dickinson for their work publishing 16th-century primary sources. He praised Cameron for her "stunning" edition of the Scottish correspondence of Mary of Guise, "placing in the hands of the researcher something formidably useful."[2]
