This chapter describes the life and career of Canadian dancer Maud Allan. Maud's career as the “Salome Dancer” presents the tale of a woman escaping herself, her past, and her family. As the Judean princess, Maud, perhaps more than any other Salome of the time, could best express publicly, with ironic anonymity, the pain of her own life.

Keywords:   Maud Allan, Canadian dancer, Salome Dancer
