Her mother was Natalia Haraszthy, granddaughter of Agoston Haraszthy, founder of California's wine industry.^{[citation needed]} She was educated in San Rafael, California, at a Dominican convent.[2]

As a child, she learned to dance the jota and other traditional Spanish dances. She began law school but left to take a course in dancing. Two seasons later, Kingston performed as a danseuse with the New York City Winter Garden show. Later, she joined a Fanchon and Marco troupe in California after they discovered her dancing in a San Francisco cabaret.^{[citation needed]})
