Leslie's first role in 1884 was Little Meenie in Joseph Jefferson's production of "Rip Van Winkle". In 1887, she was recognized as a star with her performance in "Editha's Burglar" opposite E.H. Sothern at the Lyceum Theatre in New York. She achieved further fame with her roles in "Little Lord Fauntleroy" in 1888 and "The Prince and the Pauper" in 1890. The most enduring image of Leslie is the portrait of her, posing as Little Lord Fauntleroy, painted by William Merritt Chase.
