The daughter of director Sam Wood, Stevens made her first film appearance when she was just two years old in her father's silent film, Peck's Bad Boy (1921).

Stevens appeared in a number of films in the 1940s and 1950s, including Port of New York with Yul Brenner. In addition, she acted on episodic television and appeared on the daytime soap opera The Young and the Restless. Her last film role before her death from lung cancer was in the 1994 Whoopi Goldberg film Corrina, Corrina.
