Columbia Eneutseak (1893-1959), also known as Nancy Columbia or Miss Columbia, was part of a family from Labrador that performed in Seattle at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition's "Eskimo Village" in 1909. Columbia's mother, Esther Eneutseak, was brought from Labrador to the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago, where her daughter, Columbia was born. Eneutseak recruited other Inuit from Labrador to perform in later expositions, including the 1900 World's Fair in Paris. At the AYPE, Columbia was named "Queen of the Pay Streak", and the most beautiful woman at the exposition. Columbia later went on to write and star in the first Hollywood film with a credited Inuit cast.
