Biography

Helen Lynch est née à Billings (Montana), aux États-Unis où elle grandit. Après avoir gagné un concours de beauté dans sa ville natale, elle partit pour les studios de cinéma où elle eut des problèmes à obtenir des rôles et commença en tant que figurante en 1918.

Durant sa carrière, elle participa principalement à des comédies, ce qui créa quelques conflits entre elle et les réalisateurs et producteurs, car elle souhaitait incarner des rôles plus dramatiques même si elle conservait un talent certain pour faire rire.

Elle tourna dans de nombreux films lors des années 1920 et n'eut que quatre petits rôles dans les années 1930. Elle apparut une dernière fois à l'écran dans le film Women without Names.
