Born in Auckland on 5 October 1932, Goodman was educated at St Cuthbert's College.
She married Harold Goodman in 1954, and the couple went on to have three children.
Goodman was mayoress of Auckland City during the mayoralty of her uncle Sir Dove-Myer Robinson, as well as an Auckland city councillor for 12 years.

In 1973, she opened a therapeutic pool at Kingseat Hospital.
In the 1981 Queen's Birthday Honours, Goodman was appointed a Companion of the Queen's Service Order for community service.
Her husband died on 16 August 1988 and she succeeded him onto the council in a by-election, representing the Citizens and Ratepayers group.
She championed causes including homosexual law reform, abortion rights, the volunteer movement and campaigned for the Odyssey House Trust for drug rehabilitation.
