Anna Fitziu
Anna Fitziu (April 1, 1887 – April 20, 1967) was an American soprano who had a prolific international opera career during the early part of the 20th century.〔 Her signature roles included Fiora in ''L'amore dei tre re'', Mimi in ''La Boheme'', Nedda in ''Pagliacci'', and the title roles in ''Isabeau'', ''Madama Butterfly'', and ''Tosca''. After her singing career ended, she embarked on a second career as a voice teacher. Among her notable pupils was opera singer Shirley Verrett.
==Early life and career==
She was born as Anna Powell in Huntington, West Virginia on April 1, 1887. Fitziu began her career as a chorus girl and concert soloist in New York City in 1902. At this point in her career she worked under the name "Anna Fitzhugh", taking the last name from an old Virginia family (a member of which included Continental Congress delegate William Fitzhugh) that she was related to. She went to Chicago in early 1903 to portray a number of smaller roles in the musical comedy ''The Wizard''. She remained in Chigago through 1904 appearing in leading roles in operettas and musical comedies like ''Baroness Fiddlesticks'' and ''Sergeant Brue''. From 1905 to 1906, she performed on the American vaudeville circuit.〔(Fitziu, Anna biography at operissimo.com (in German) )〕
