A member of the Republican Party, she served one term in the United States House of Representatives from Utah's 2nd district. She was the first Republican woman elected to Congress from Utah.

Born Enid Greene in San Rafael, California, she grew up in Salt Lake City where she graduated from East High School before earning her B.A. from the University of Utah in 1980. She received her law degree from Brigham Young University in 1983. After graduating, she worked as a lawyer for software company Novell and then at a Salt Lake City law firm. She served as deputy chief of staff for Governor Norman H. Bangerter from 1990 to 1992, leaving that position to make a competitive but unsuccessful run for a congressional district that encompassed Salt Lake City and its suburbs. Greene then became a corporate counsel for a major high-technology company based in Provo, Utah. In August 1993, she married Republican consultant Joe Waldholtz in a ceremony presided over by Utah Governor Michael O. Leavitt. Meanwhile, Waldholtz was preparing to run again for the Salt Lake City seat in the U.S. House.
