Wayburn worked closely with Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. in numerous productions. His career spanned over 44 major stage productions.
- Son with Helene Davis Wayburn: Ned Wayburn Jr.
- Owned the Ned Wayburn Academy in New York City, a dancing school from which he picked many of the dancers used in his Broadway productions.
