Studied ballet with the famed Mikhail Fokin and had her debut on Broadway in the musical "Beggar On Horseback". She appeared with Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. in the 1926 production of "No Foolin'". She was brought to the screen by Jesse Lasky. Was replaced by Jean Harlow on Hell's Angels (1930) when producer Howard Hughes decided to make it a sound film, and Nissen's heavy Norwegian accent made much of her dialogue unintelligible.
