1360) Anna Case

Anna Case (1888/89 – 1984). American operatic soprano. She recorded with Thomas Alva Edison, who used her voice extensively in "tone tests" of whether a live audience could tell the difference between the actual singer and a recording. In addition to recordings for Edison Records on both phonograph cylinder and Diamond Disc, Case recorded for Victor and Columbia Records, and made sound film for Vitaphone.

 

- "Moreover, Anna Case was exquisite to behold, long-limbed in white satin, her auburn hair piled high..." https://books.google.it/books?id=psyU-xaGwxEC&pg=PA338...
