Originally billed as 'Eleanor Spaulding', she was using the more informal 'Nellie' by 1918. She most often played mothers, aunts, or older women, such as "Mrs. Peniston" in the first filmed version of Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth (1918). Spaulding worked for various production companies, but her last role (in 1925) was in an MGM picture.
