Angela Isadora Duncan (* 27. Mai 1877 in San Francisco, USA; † 14. September 1927 in Nizza, Frankreich) war eine US-amerikanische Tänzerin und Choreografin. Duncan war Wegbereiterin des modernen sinfonischen Ausdruckstanzes, entwickelte ein neues Körper- und Bewegungsempfinden, das sich am griechischen Schönheitsideal orientierte, und setzte als erste klassische Konzertmusik tänzerisch um. Als Gegnerin des klassischen Balletts versuchte sie, den Tanz der Antike wiederzubeleben.
