Document signed: "Helen Traubel", 1p, 6¾x8. Los Angeles,
California, 1964 August 11. In part: "You are hereby notified that

Traubel (1899-1972) was considered one of the finest Wagnerian sopranos
of her day, especially in the role of Brünnhilde. Traubel, who had made her
debut with the St. Louis Symphony in 1923, was offered a position with
New York's Metropolitan Opera in 1926, but she turned it down to continue her
studies. She would later sing with the Met, and Traubel was also a
popular recording and radio artist, and she appeared on Broadway, in
films and on television. Her appearances on TV variety shows (on which she
sang popular music as well as opera) led to her being fired from the Met by
Rudolph Bing in 1953. Traubel published her autobiography, St.
Louis Woman, in 1959. Fold crease through signature. Ink note (unknown hand)
at lower right corners. Otherwise, fine condition.
