THE COLD WAR SOPRANO
Many
Wagner Society of Dallas members fondly remember Sheila Jones Harms, who was
an active member of the organization, and who presented many interesting
programs and recitals over the years.
Now, WSD member Ed Flaspoehler has completed his biography of Sheila,
called The Cold War Soprano: Memoirs of a Singer-Spy.
If you are interested in opera and fine singing, Sheila's biography will
surely be of interest to you. Not only will you get an inside glimpse of
what it takes to become an opera singer, and learn about the world of opera
in Post- WWII Vienna, but, because Sheila and her husband Werner, were also
CIA agents, you will get a look at the Cold War from a personal point of
view.
