Selen was born in 1939 in Istanbul. Her father was lawyer Hüsamettin Selen, and her mother, Nimet Selen, was a granddaughter of scholar Ahmed Cevdet Pasha and daughter of Fatma Aliye Topuz.
She finished her high school education at the Beşiktaş Atatürk Anadolu Lisesi. During her high school years she also attended the Theatre Department of Beşiktaş Municipal Conservatory. In 1956, she started studying law at the request of her family. At the same time she started to work at the Dormen Theatre. A year later, she left the law school and started her painting education at the Istanbul Academy of Fine Arts. In 1957, she married the painter Cem Kabaağaç and together they had a son. After her marriage, she left the Academy and pitched out her role at the Dormen Theatre. She began her professional career in the theatre season of 1959–60 with Alexandro Casona's Woman Coming at Dawn. During the same season she soon became famous as Nicole Cerusier in Alber Husson's comedy The Pavements in the Sky.
In addition to theatre plays, she also starred in a number of motion pictures and series. For her role as the Witch in Pamuk Prenses ve 7 Cüceler she won the Best Supporting Actress award at the 1971 International Antalya Film Festival. She was the recipient of the Best Supporting Actress award at the Ankara International Film Festival for her role as Füruzan in Cazibe Hanımın Gündüz Düşleri. For her role as Elmas in Gönderilmemiş Mektuplar, Selen won the Best Actress award at the International Istanbul Film Festival.
Selen's second marriage was to Münir Özkul, from which she has a daughter, named Güner Özkul. In 1974, she divorced Münir Özkul and married play writer Güner Sümer. She later gave birth to her third child and second son Sinan Sümer.
In 2016, "because of the dignity she gained in acting profession during her long life as an artist", she became the first recipient of the Lifetime Nadide Küntay Award at the İsmet Küntay Theatre Awards ceremony.
