When St. Edmund was a child, she lived with her grandmother on a farm in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The farmhands watched boxing on television, which sparked St. Edmund's interest in boxing as an adult. She was a tomboy. She moved to Manhattan with her mother, at the age of nine. She attended ballet classes and at the age of 12 performed in her first Broadway musical.

St. Edmund married in the late 1970s and moved to Upper Saddle River, New Jersey. She gave birth to a daughter, named Skye. She is divorced and lives in Wayne, New Jersey.

St. Edmund's theater debut was in the first production of Bye Bye Birdie on Broadway, playing Penelope Ann at the age of 12. Her stage name was Lada Edmund, Jr. She performed in West Side Story, also on Broadway, when she was fifteen, and also performed in Promises, Promises.

At seventeen, St. Edmund became a go-go dancer on Hullabaloo. While working on the show, she met Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. During her time at Hullabaloo, she was on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson. She received fan letters, including many from students at Harvard. Donna McKechnie described St. Edmund as having a "Brigitte Bardot look". She was featured on the cover of TV Guide in June 1965.
