LEONARD WARREN
Inscribed 4½x6½ b/w photo, in suit and tie
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Mr. Joseph Feldman/Sincerely/Leonard Warren". B/w, 4½x6½ overall, image 4x5 (one surface). Leonard Warren (1911-1960) was hired for the chorus at Radio City Music Hall in 1935. Untutored in opera, he won the Metropolitan Opera's Audition of the Air in 1938, and was rewarded with a contract and a stipend for voice lessons in Italy. He was a regular on the Met stage from 1939 until his death, singing many parts but particularly acclaimed for his interpretations of Verdi. He sang the part of Iago in Verdi's Otello in the first "live from the Met" broadcast on television (1948). He died on stage at the Met on March 1, 1960, while singing the title role in Simon Boccanegra. The last words he sang (in Italian) before dropping dead translate as, "To die, a momentous thing!" Lightly creased at corners. Fine condition.
