Young was born in Denver, Colorado.[1] Actresses Loretta Young and Sally Blane were her sisters.[2] From 1917 to 1941, she was featured in over 40 movies, some of them minor, uncredited roles. Among her more notable movie roles was as John Wayne's leading lady in The Man from Utah (1934). Her last film was the Poverty Row horror movie Invisible Ghost with Bela Lugosi in 1941.

Her sisters Sally and Loretta also died of cancer. She was a half-sister to Georgiana Young, wife of actor Ricardo Montalbán.
