She was born Eli Marie Thaulow to a Danish mother, Ingeborg Charlotte Gad (1852–1908), and a Norwegian father, the impressionist painter Frits Thaulow. Her paternal grandfather was the wealthy Norwegian pharmacist Harald Thaulow (1815-1881). Her brother was the Norwegian author Harald Thaulow (1887-1971), who wrote under the pseudonym John Hell.
