She was the daughter of a wealthy shoe manufacturer, Emmanual Rosenbaum. In 1927 she married Baron Giacomo Giorgio Levi, in Paris, France, and later moved to Rome; the couple had a daughter. In Italy Baroness Levi became a prominent tennis player, and in 1930 she returned to the United States to compete in tennis. By 1933 she won four tennis titles, including the New York State Tennis Championship; next years she was ranked 7th female player by the U. S. Lawn Tennis Association.
