Bremer was born in Amsterdam, New York and began her career as a Rockette at Radio City Music Hall in New York City, aged 16. Bremer, along with fellow stars Vera-Ellen and June Allyson, appeared as a Pony Girl in the Broadway musical Panama Hattie in 1940. She made her screen debut in Meet Me in St. Louis, and followed this with Yolanda and the Thief, and a featured dance performance in Ziegfeld Follies. Her last major film was Till the Clouds Roll By.
