Hatto


I know very little about this photograph, except that it was from the early 1900's and the actresses name was "Hatto". I was unable to run anything down beyond that.

  2. RTD pretty much nailed it (again). Her stage name was Jeanne Hatto, and a short bio I found reads:

    1879 Birth of Jeanne Hatto Soprano Born 30 Jan 1879 St Amour France Died Mar 1958 Debut as Brunehild in Sigurd (Reyer) Sang in premiere of Barbares (Saint-Saens) Astarte(Leroux) Roi Arthus (Chausson) La Voila du Bonheur (Pons)

    Jeanne Hatto was the stage name of Marguerite Jeanne Frere.

  5. Good job, Roger.

    Astropuff pretty much said it.

    Ms Hatto's garb is odd, what with the keys and _mini-bagpipes?_ hanging there.
