Hanrahan always combined writing with visual arts. She kept a diary in her late teenage years and then again in London to make sense of a strange city.<ref>http://mpegmedia.abc.net.au/rn/podcast/extra/hht_20110220_hanrahan84.mp3</ref> She began writing her first book, ''The Scent of Eucalyptus'', a semi-autobiographical consideration of her childhood, after the death of her grandmother in 1968.<ref>Hanrahan, Barbara SA Memory Website, State Library of South Australia [http://www.samemory.sa.gov.au/site/page.cfm?u=438&c=1992] Retrieved 21-04-2014</ref> The book was published in 1973. Her last work of fiction was ''Michael and Me and the Sun'', which was published in 1992 after her death from cancer. Her edited diaries were published in 1998, revealing less than favourable comments about many of her contemporaries. A biography by Annette Marion Stewart was published in the same year.<ref>[http://www.uqp.uq.edu.au/author_details.php?id=42 University of Queensland Press]</ref>

The Barbara Hanrahan Fellowship for South Australian writers was established in Hanrahan's memory by her partner Jo Steele. A street in Thebarton is named after her, and in 1997 a building at the [[University of South Australia]]'s City West campus was named to honour her memory.
