She is known for playing the role of DS Claire Stanton in the long running ITV drama The Bill from 1999 to 2001. She first appeared on The Bill as a victim, Penny Thompson, on episode 6 of series 11 in 1995.
She has also appeared in several other television programmes, including A Touch of Frost and Kingdom.
She has written a play for the National Theatre.
Her first novel was Shame on You,[1] and in a related piece recalled her own family upbringing as part of an unnamed religious cult in The Guardian in July 2009.[2] The school has been named as one of the St James Independent Schools, following the precepts of the School of Philosophy and Economic Science.[3] Her second novel, The Boat, appeared in 2014, based on her real experience aged 18 when Salaman and her fiancé hitched a ride on a yacht with couple who claimed to sexually abuse their young daughter.[4] While criticisms were made of Salaman's failure to report the suspected abuse, Salaman provided her reasoning to The Guardian.[5] She has adapted her third novel, Too Close (published pseudonymously as Natalie Daniels),[6] into a three-part television series of the same name.
