Hume graduated from Toronto's Havergal College in 1970, and received a Bachelor of Arts degree at the University of Waterloo four years later. In 1976, the Toronto animation company Nelvana hired her as a cinematographer, a position she held for several of its first television specials including The Devil and Daniel Mouse. Hume served as director of photography for its first animated feature, 1983's Rock & Rule. For its next effort, 1985's The Care Bears Movie, she served as supervising producer and worked with Korean and Taiwanese crew.

Lenora also began producing television animation. Ewoks and Droids for Lucasfilm and The Care Bears are amongst her producing credits, which also include the award-winning Babar (1989, Gemini Award for Best Animated Program or Series) and Beetlejuice (1990, Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Animated Program).

By 1990, Hume moved to Walt Disney Television Animation, where she became Director of International Production, overseeing production on all animated shows produced between 1990-2003 featured in The Disney Afternoon syndicated package. In 1995, she was its international vice-president. With a career spanning 16 years, she rose within the organization to become Senior Vice President of Worldwide Production for both Walt Disney Television Animation and DisneyToon Studios.
