Early life
Barnes was born in Islington, London, and the niece of Rosa Enoyce and George Barnes, a policeman, was in her family; 16 children were in her household. Barnes served a variety of jobs before heading to Hollywood to become an actress, such as chorus girl, nurse, and dance hostess.

Binnie Barnes, 95, died in Beverly Hills on July 27, 1998 of natural causes. She was laid to rest in Forest Lawn Memorial Park, Glendale.
Career
Barnes began her acting career in films in 1923, appearing in a short film made by Lee De Forest in his Phonofilm sound-on-film process. Her film career continued in Great Britain, most notably in The Private Life of Henry VIII (1933) as Katherine Howard, Henry's fifth wife. Barnes' main qualm in accepting roles as an actress was that she not play submissive roles. Barnes once remarked, "One picture is just like another to me, as long as I don't have to be a sweet woman". Later, her career continued in Hollywood, until 1973, when she appeared in the comedy 40 Carats, her last acting role.
