She attended Miller High School, graduating in 1956. Maclin began working for Motown Records in 1961 as the record company's first tape librarian, organizing the library and making it a legitimate music archive.

In 2009, she published her memoir about her time at Motown, I Remember Motown: When We Were Just Family.
