Daly was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. P. H. Daly and a graduate of the Whittier School[2] and Hollywood High School.[3]

In June 1924, Daly received publicity when casting director Lewis Mason committed suicide and left a note that said, in part, "Everything I have, please give to Marcella Daly."[4]
