MARIAN ANDERSON
Marian Anderson signs for a fan on an album leaf in 1938
Signature: "Marian Anderson/1938", 7¾x6 green album leaf.
Marian Anderson (1897-1993), a contralto who sang both operas and
spirituals, began her concert career in 1924. In 1939, the Daughters of the
American Revolution refused to allow Anderson, a Black American, to perform in
Washington, D.C.'s Constitution Hall. In response, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt
resigned from the D.A.R. and arranged for a concert at the Lincoln Memorial.
Anderson, who debuted with New York's Metropolitan Opera in 1955, became a
permanent member of the company. In 2005, she was honored on a 37-cent
postage stamp. Left edge frayed from binding. Edges toned. Otherwise, fine
condition.
