Dana Linn Bailey is an American IFBB Pro fitness and figure competitor (physique category). She is the winner of Joe Weider's Olympia in 2013.
Dana was recruited to play soccer for West Chester University as a starting defender. She helped lead her team to NCAA's playoffs. When she graduated from college, she made the transition to lifting, along with her then-boyfriend Rob Bailey.[1]
She entered her first figure competition in 2006 at the Lehigh Valley Championships and competed in figure until 2010. She taught Physical Education at Conrad Weiser Middle School in Robesonia Pennsylvania until 2007, when she retired to focus on her bodybuilding career.

She won overall, received her IFBB pro card, and became the first women's physique professional in the NPC/IFBB. She is currently on hiatus from the Olympia competition, focusing on the gym she owns with her husband.[2]
