1931 ca , USA : The Opera soprano singer russian-born GANNA WALSKA ( 1887 - 1984) married with the millionaire manufacturer and newspaper heir Harold F. McCormick (1872-1941) , divorced in 1931 . Orson Welles claimed that McCormick's lavish promotion of Walska's opera career—despite her apparent renown as a terrible singer—was a direct influence on the screenplay for Citizen Kane, wherein the titular character does much the same for his second wife, Susan Alexander. McCormick spent thousands of dollars on voice lessons for her and even arranged for Walska to take the lead in a production of Zaza by Ruggero Leoncavallo at the Chicago Opera in 1920. Ganna married six times . In 1941, with the encouragement of 6th housband, a scholar of yoga and Tibetan Buddhism, Theo Bernard, she purchased a 37-acre Cuesta Linda estate in Santa Barbara, California, intending to use it as a retreat for Tibetan monks. Because of restrictions on wartime visas, the monks were unable to come to the United States. After her divorce from Bernard in 1946, Walska changed the name of her estate to " Lotusland " and devoted the rest of her life to maintaining its extensive gardens. - OPERA LIRICA - cantante - pearls necklace - collana di perle - perla - DIVA - DIVINA - MUSIC - CLASSICAL - MUSICA CLASSICA --- Archivio GBB
