Louise Le Baron (1874–1918) was an American contralto[1] singer who performed in opera and musical theatre during the early years of the twentieth century.

Louise Le Baron (née Shepherd) was born in Winchester, Massachusetts in 1874,[2] and at around the age of sixteen began singing with a church choir at Boston area engagements.

During this time she played Lady Jane in The Two Roses by Ludwig Engländer and Stanislaus Stange, with a libretto adapted from Goldsmith's She Stoops to Conquer,[3] and as Marie Louise de Bouvray in Mlle.

[2] In 1913 she shared the male role of Alan-a-Dale with actress Florence Wickham in the comic opera Robin Hood by Reginald De Koven and Harry B. Smith.

As her career began to wind down Le Baron settled in Lincoln, Nebraska where she had always been well received and opened a voice school.
