She was born in Philadelphia, the youngest of three daughters, and sang as a child in plays performed in schools and churches around the area. At 16, she travelled to New York and appeared in many Broadway productions throughout the 1920s, and was spotted by Richard Dix -- a popular silent movie actor of the time, who gave her a screen test for a film in pre-production that he would be starring in, but her theater contract wouldn't allow her to leave production. However, the footage would bring her to Hollywood anyway when Creator/ErnstLubitsch was surfing through footage of Broadway actors to hire, and [=MacDonald=] was cast in ''The Love Parade''.

It allowed her to return to Broadway after retiring from Hollywood in the 1950s, but she was still a household name and appeared frequently on television and toured the country singing up until her death.
