Born in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, she relocated to the United States in the late 1980s to pursue higher education, earning a degree in Modern Culture and Media from Brown University. Before establishing herself as an independent producer, Yeldham built extensive experience working in acquisition, programming, and production roles: she served as Director of Acquisitions and Business Affairs at Fox/Lorber and Associates, Senior Programmer of the Sundance Film Festival, and Associate Director of the Sundance Institute's International Programs, where she was responsible for selecting films and organising initiatives to support emerging filmmakers. She also held the position of Senior Vice President of Production at FilmFour in the United Kingdom, where she oversaw its U.S. production unit and worked with notable directors on development and production initiatives.

Her credits also encompass work on the Brazilian drama Linha de Passe (2008), the psychological thriller The Gift (2015), and the dark comedy Gringo (2018). Beyond her producing work, she has engaged with the broader film community through roles on festival juries and selection committees and was appointed Director of the Los Angeles Film Festival.
For The Kite Runner (2007), she and her fellow producers were nominated for the BAFTA Award for Best Film Not in the English Language in 2008 and won the Christopher Award for Feature Films that same year.
