As early as 1914, Burkett worked as an extra in Famous Players-Lasky films. She progressed to feature roles by the end of that decade.[3] She is best recalled for her silent comedies and her late-in-life appearances in sitcoms and TV commercials. She appeared in nearly sixty silent films before retiring upon her 1928 marriage to Ralph Leland Zane. Among her earliest co-stars and friends were Buster Keaton, Roscoe "Fatty" Arbuckle, Al St. John and Stan Laurel.[4]

In 1973, five years after her husband's death, she returned to acting, appearing in three films and a number of television programs and advertisements.[5]
