Born Olive Fuller Golden in New York City, New York, she appeared in more than fifty films, mostly westerns, including Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, often playing tough tom-boy parts. In 1920, she wed actor Harry Carey, Sr., with whom she remained until his death in 1947. They had two children, a daughter Ellen and a son, actor Harry Carey, Jr. She died at the age of ninety-two in Carpinteria, California.

In 1956, she guest starred in the episode "Death in the Snow" of the NBC anthology series, the Joseph Cotten Show. In 1957-1958, Carey played Elsie, the live-in housekeeper, on the CBS sitcom, Mr. Adams and Eve, starring Howard Duff and Ida Lupino (then married in real life) as fictitious married actors living in Beverly Hills, California.
