Lyon's early career flourished with appearances in such high-profile films as John Huston's The Night of the Iguana (1964), John Ford's 7 Women (1966), the Frank Sinatra detective film Tony Rome (1967), and the George C. Scott comedy The Flim-Flam Man (1967). However, her career diminished in the 1970s and she subsequently retired from acting after making Alligator, which was released in 1980.
