She attended Colonial High school in Orlando, then on a scholarship she won while participating in the Miss America contest, she went to a drama school in London.

Afterwards, Burke moved to Los Angeles looking for acting work, nabbing some small roles in television. In 1984 she had a starring role in HBO's first weekly series, 1st & Ten.
