She made her screen debut in Meet Me in St. Louis (1944) as Judy Garland's sister, and followed this with a co-starring role opposite Fred Astaire in Yolanda and the Thief (1945), and a featured dance performance, once again with Astaire in Ziegfeld Follies (1946). Her last major film was Till the Clouds Roll By in 1946 but after this MGM began to lose interest in promoting her. After a few minor films she played her first starring role in the 1948 drama Behind Locked Doors. Reportedly disappointed with her Hollywood career she elected not to renew her contract and left the film industry.
