Homa Hoodfar (Persian: هما هودفر) is a Canadian-Iranian sociocultural anthropologist and professor emerita of anthropology at Concordia University in Montreal.[1] While she is most widely known for her work on Western perceptions of the veil or hijab in its varied forms, meanings, and historical uses,[2] much of her work has focused on women's roles in public life in Muslim societies,[3] with particular attention to how religious symbols and interpretations have been variously used to support and repress women's status.[4]
