She was born in Toronto, Ontario to Robert McKenzie Bertram and Louisa Hope Hodgens.
As Louise Bertram, she and her partner, Stewart Reburn, were dubbed "the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers of the ice world" and were Canadian seniors pairs champions in 1935.
Her partnership with Reburn ended in 1938 when he was spotted by world champion Norwegian skater Sonja Henie.
The professional skating career of Louise Bertram ended shortly after that when she married Sidney Hulbig.
