Singer Irene Kral was her aunt. [3]
Her parents divorced shortly after her birth. Her mother then married businessman William Bolling, who adopted her. His business ventures brought his new family to southern Florida, where she grew up [4]
In the late 1960s, Bolling had bit parts in the comedy Birds Do It (1966) and the detective drama Tony Rome (1967), starring Frank Sinatra. She starred in the television series The New People , but it only lasted one season (1969–70). She guest-starred on a number of other television series, including Ironside ("The Wrong Time, the Wrong Place", 1970, as a film actress who falls in love with Don Galloway's Sgt. Ed Brown), Marcus Welby, M.D. (as a leprosy victim engaged to Don Galloway's character, shot the same year as the "Ironside" episode), and The Sixth Sense (as Damaris in "Witch, Witch, Burning Bright", 1972).
In April 1972, she did a pictorial for Playboy magazine. She later called that exposure "the worst experience of my life" and said she was not paid a fee.

She was dismissive of The Candy Snatchers and took the role solely for the money, elaborating "I was doing cocaine...and I didn't really know what I was doing, and I was very angry about the way that my career had gone in the industry... the opportunities that I had and had not been given... The hardest thing for me, as I look back on it, was I had done The New People , and so I had a lot of young people who really respected me and... revered me as something of a hero, and then I came out with this stupid Candy Snatchers movie... it was a horrendous experience." [6]
