Tessa Kosta
Tessa Kay Kosta (December 12, 1890〔The birth year is derived from Kosta’s age at the time of the 1900 census, birthday from various travel documents that reflect a wide range of birth years.〕 – August 23, 1981) was a star of Broadway musicals and operettas during the early decades of the twentieth century.
==Early life and career==
Kosta was born in Chicago, Illinois, the daughter of Edward and Emma Kosta. Her parents came to America from Hungary the year of her birth, settling first in Chicago and then San Francisco where her father worked as a confectioner.〔1900 US Census; Tessa Kosta; Age 9; San Francisco; b. Illinois, Dec. 1890; parents, Edward, Emma Kosta〕 Sometime after the turn of the twentieth century Kosta’s family moved to Ely, Nevada where she graduated from Ely High School in 1907. Prior to entering college at Salt Lake City, she studied music at the Holy Rosary Academy in San Bernardino, California.〔Passenger Manifest; Tessa Madden; b.

Kosta’s break came in February, 1911 when producer George W. Lederer plucked her from the chorus to play the title role Yvonne Sherry in road productions of his hit Broadway musical, ''Madame Sherry''.〔〔(''Madame Sherry'' ), Internet Broadway Database, accessed August 19, 2012〕 She stayed with ''Madame Sherry'' for over a year to positive reviews before touring in late 1912 as Claudine with the musical comedy ''The Pink Lady'' opposite Olga De Baugh and Harry Depp.〔"''Madame Sherry'' is Most Charming", ''Olean Times'' (Olean, New York: Monday, March 25, 1912; P. 4〕〔"''The Pink Lady''", ''Atlanta Constitution'' (Atlanta, Georgia); Friday, November 15, 1912; p. 2〕〔(''The Pink Lady'' ), Internet Broadway Database, accessed August 19, 2012〕〔"K. & E.’s ''Pink Lady'' Proved Pleasing", ''Hamilton Evening Journal'' (Hamilton, Ohio); Monday, January 20, 1913; p. 3〕
