At the age of seventeen, she ventured to the vibrant artistic enclave of Venice Beach, California, where she would establish her home in the late 1960s. While pursuing her studies as an art major with a focus on painting, Mills began her career in the arts through nude modeling.
Her foray into the film industry began in 1968 when she appeared in her first soft-core film. In 1969, she met her future husband, Frank Mills, who played a crucial role in her career by introducing her to agent Hal Guthu.

Alongside her acting endeavors, she continued to nurture her passion for painting, becoming a respected independent artist within the Venice Beach community.
Barbara was a devoted mother to two children, son Nigel Mills and daughter Carly J. Mills. Her life came to an untimely end on December 15, 2010, when she passed away at the age of 59 in Ko Samui, Thailand.
