Edith Lorand

Toronto Daily Star, November 23 1935

Edith Lorand (1898-1960) has a reasonably large Internet footprint. Among other links, I found a blog post and a British Pathé film clip.

She was a successful recording artist in Germany in the 1920s and 1930s, producing a large quantity of recordings for a number of labels. However, she was forced to flee Germany for her native Hungary in 1934, as she had Jewish ancestry. In 1937, she again had to flee, this time to the United States, where she took American citizenship and married. She returned to Berlin shortly before her death.
