She appeared in 39 American, English, and Australian films between 1915 and 1929, notably appearing as the Virgin Mary in Cecil B. DeMille's 1927 film The King of Kings and the jealous wife in Lillian Gish's 1928 The Wind. She also appeared in stage productions in those same countries. After her film career ended, she became a designer of wallpapers in association with her sister Rose Cumming. She was born in New South Wales. Her 1932 wedding announcement in the New York Times states that her family was from Morrengullen Estates in New South Wales. Though her Hollywood biography gives her birth year as 1899, a ship's manifest gives Cumming's age as 26 years and 7 months, which would mean she was born four years earlier, in 1895. The 7 months also puts her birth month at odds, since it indicates that she was born in July, rather than April.
