- Was best-known for her role of handy-woman, "Ralph Monroe", in some 40 episodes of Les arpents verts (1965) (1965 to 1971).
- She appeared in Broadway and off-Broadway plays before heading to Hollywood.
- Canfield played Abner Kravitz's sister Harriet on four episodes of Ma sorcière bien aimée (1964).
- I didn't want to go to college because I knew exactly what I wanted to do. Later, when I asked my parents what they thought of this little skinny girl wanting to be an actress, they said they were so relieved that I wanted to do something.
