The death of Brenda Lewis is reported in the parish sheet.

Brenda sang 38 times at the Met from 1952 to 1965, and many times more at City Opera. She enjoyed a concurrent Broadway career in musical, something that would be frowned upon today.

 

She also appeared in Montreal, Rio, Vienna Volksoper and Zurich.
