A former World Figure Staking champion, she won a silver medal (for pairs with partner Norris Bowden) at the 1956 Winter Olympics in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy. She was awarded the Order of Ontario in 1990 and the Order of Canada in 1991 in recognition of her contributions to costume design and sport in Canada. She is also a recipient of the Confederation medal and the Golden Jubilee medal. Dafoe was a graduate of Branksome Hall and Central Technical High School in Toronto, where one of her teachers was artist Doris McCarthy. She also attended Parsons School of Design in New York. After her retirement from professional figure skating, Dafoe worked a costume designer for the CBC, where she contributed to such television series and specials as "The Wayne and Shuster Show", "The Royal Canadian Air Farce", The NHL Awards, and various dance or figure-skating specials. She also designed the costumes for the closing ceremonies of the Olympic Winter Games in Calgary in 1988. A long-time collaborator with choreographer Alan Lund, Dafoe worked on stage productions at the Charlottetown Festival, as well as performances by the Royal Winnipeg Ballet and numerous figure skating productions featuring Kurt Browning, Elizabeth Manley, Brian Orser and Toller Cranston. Also a freelance designer, Dafoe has created costumes for many professional performers, dancers and figure skaters, including Karen Kain, Michael Burgess, Alan Thicke, Al Waxman, Sharon, Lois & Bram, Kristi Yamaguchi, Scott Hamilton, Elvis Stojko, Isabelle Brasseur and Lloyd Lloyd Eisler, Katarina Witt, Elizabeth Manley and Kurt Browning. Dafoe was nominated for a Gemini Award for costume design for such works as "Return to the beanstalk", ‘The True gift of Christmas’, ‘I'll never go to heaven’ and ‘You must remember this’. She received an Ace award for costume design for her work on ‘Rich Little's Robin Hood’, a Golden Gate award at the San Francisco International Film Festival for her work on ‘Strawberry Ice’ and a Prix Anik Award for her costume designs in the television productions of ‘Strawberry Ice’ and ‘Return to the Beanstalk’.

  • Car Lottery Proceeds Support Perley and Rideau Seniors
    May 22, 2014 | Keys to Scott-King's convertible go to Almonte man; Car lottery proceeds support Perley and Rideau seniors Submitted Richard Swartman, left, beams after winning a 1988 red convertible once owned by Canadian figure skating champion Barbara Ann Scott-King. Delphine Haslé, development officer with the Perley and Rideau Veterans' Health Centre Foundation, and foundation executive director Daniel Clapin, drew Swartman's ticket in the car lottery fundraiser. Ottawa South News By Erin McCracken An Almonte man is the winner of a 1988 red convertible once owned by Canadian figure skating champion Barbara Ann Scott-King. Richard Swartman's ticket was drawn on May 9 from 1,093 tickets, which each cost $100, in a fundraising lottery organized by The Perley and Rideau Veterans' Health Centre Foundation. The first question Daniel Clapin, foundation executive director, asked Swartman when he called to tell him the news was, do you like the colour red? Swartman had no idea what Clapin was talking about, until the director spelled out the good news. "When we called him from the stage ... you could hear his wife jumping up and down, 'We won a car. We won a car,'" said Clapin. Scott-King's Mercedes Benz 560 SL roadster, valued at $40,000, was donated by Scott-King's husband, Tom King. Proceeds from the event, held in honour of the legendary figure skater's gold-medal performance during the 1948 Olympic Games, will go to The Perley and Rideau's Building Choices, Enriching Lives capital campaign. Scott-King, who passed away in September 2012, joined the campaign that same summer as one of three honourary co-chairs.

  • Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with Me” Exhibit Podcast Presented by the City of Ottawa Archives
    Welcome to the “Barbara Ann Scott: Come Skate with me” exhibit podcast presented by the city of Ottawa archives. In the podcast, City Archivist Paul Henry interviews Barbara Ann Scott at her home in Florida, and Educational Programming Officer Olga Zeale interviews Paul Henry and Elizabeth Manley in Ottawa. PH: My name is Paul Henry, I am City Archivist for the City of Ottawa. OZ: Why was it important for the City of Ottawa Archives to acquire Barbara Ann Scott’s collection? PH: Uh, well the mandate of the City of Ottawa Archives is to document the corporation of the City of Ottawa as well as serve as a repository for records that would otherwise be lost to history; records that in particular tell the story of the individual contributions of notable citizens, organizations, businesses, community organizations, that have contributed to the fabric of Ottawa and which tell, essentially, the story of the gap between what the City does and what our known history of an area is. So, the private records really flush out and make interesting a story of Ottawa beyond its role as a nation‟s capital. The Barbara Ann Scott collection fulfills that in many ways. Barbara is our most decorated citizen, our most decorated Olympic athlete, and if you think back to those days in „47 and „48 when we had, and gave Barbara the key to the city and had events and parades in her honour. The number of people that came out in those days to celebrate her accomplishments was certainly something, and in many ways, the city, in some way belongs to Barbara.
