Born in 1885 in Geneseo, New York, Greenwood studied to be a teacher but left New York Normal School to perform in vaudeville in the United States and Canada.

Greenwood was on the vaudeville stage from an early age, performing with the Kings Carnival Company in Canada and the United States. She went on to act with stock theater companies, one of which she headed. She was signed in 1910 and starred in over 200 films before her retirement in 1927. She starred in a number of films with Charlotte Burton including The Shriner's Daughter in 1913. "In pictures the hours are comparatively easy, there is no traveling and we work out of doors much of the time," she explained in 1917. Although her motion picture career ended in 1927, she continued on the stage, including a long stint in Houston, Texas. In 1929, she joined the Dana Players of Pasadena as a regular cast member. In 1934, she starred in a "modern comedy of bad manners", Six of One, produced at the Actors Workshop Theater in Los Angeles.

Greenwood's first husband was her co-star, Joseph F. Bannister; they married in 1904, and divorced in 1913. They had a son, Alonzo, and a daughter, Rene. She was married to actor George Field from 1913 to 1918.
