Englebright was born in Nevada City, California. His father, William F. Englebright, also served in the United States House of Representatives. Harry Englebright attended the University of California, Berkeley and became a mining engineer before entering politics; he was connected with various mining enterprises in California and was an engineer for the State Conservation Commission from 1911 to 1914.^[2]

Englebright was elected to the House of Representatives in a special election in 1926, following the death of Congressman John E. Raker.
