Happy Birthday

Evelyn Lear, born January 8, 1926 as Evelyn Shulman in Brooklyn, New York and completed her musical education at Hunter College, New York University and the Juilliard School of Music studying voice, piano, French horn and composition. She was married to the famous American bass-baritone Thomas Stewart and they lived in Santa Fe, NM, taking part in many SFO productions memorable in my youth. Alas, Mr. Stewart died on the 24th of September, 2006, and I imagine Ms. Lear has returned to New York where I hope she has Many Happy Returns!
