She was a member of The Bitter End Singers in 1964, a short-lived folksinging group along with Lefty Baker, Tina Bohlmann, Bob Hider, Norris O'Neill, and Vilma Vaccaro. In 1968, she released the album You've Come This Way Before, described by Billboard as "a minor classic of psychedelic folk" and by an Allmusic reviewer as "an off-the-wall singer/songwriter album drawing from both folk-rock and psychedelia". That same year she contributed backup vocals to Leonard Cohen's debut album Songs of Leonard Cohen. At one point she dated Stephen Stills and was the inspiration for his Buffalo Springfield song "Pretty Girl Why".
After years of being away from the recording studio, she returned in 2007 to record Christina's Carousel, released in early 2008.
