Barbara Bears is a principal dancer with the Houston Ballet in Houston, Texas.

A native of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Bears joined the Houston Ballet in 1988 and was unexpectedly chosen by choreographer Sir Kenneth MacMillan for his ballet Gloria, an honor Bears regards as her most profound defining moment. She was awarded the silver medal at the International Ballet Competition in 1991 and promoted to principal dancer four years later. In 2001, Bears took a two-year hiatus from performing with the Houston Ballet to teach dance and to choreograph her own ballet, Speaking In Strings, for her company.
