Arbus came from a wealthy family, in which she was overshadowed by her older brother, the poet Howard Nemerov. At age fourteen, she fell in love with actor Allan Arbus, and as soon as she became eighteen, she married him despite objections from her parents. A few years later Allan started to work as a photographer for the US Army, at night teaching Diane what he learned by day; she also learned about photography through Lisette Model. She ran a successful fashion photography studio for twenty years with her husband, before they separated in 1959. The Arbuses had two children, photographer Amy Arbus and writer and art director Doon Arbus.
