She began her career in January 1962, and modeled for photographers Peter Gowland, Ron Vogel, Donald G. Klumpp, Sam Wu, Elmer Batters, and Michael LeRoy among others. She retired from modeling in August 1963 but her pictures appeared in publications until 1968.

Ms. Dawn was employed for eight months under the name "Gloria Dawn" during which she had blonde hair. This alias was consistently used for her blonde appearances. She also worked for three months as a brunette and one month as a strawberry blonde, but the name "Gloria Dawn" was not used for these periods. Instead, Keith Bernard referred to her as "Susan Norman." Additionally, in publications featuring photos by Elmer Batters, she was given various other names for each appearance.
Her real name was Gloria Moeser but in 1965 she changed her first name to Shannon, thereby becoming Shannon Dawn Moeser. In September 1965, she enrolled in a BA program at Simon Fraser University and obtained her PhD in 1971 from McGill University.
