    I'm guessing that's May Esther Peterson Thompson (1880-1952), American opera singer. www.tshaonline.org/handbook/online/articles/TT/fth48.html www.cemetery.state.tx.us/pub/user_form.asp?pers_id=2314

    I think that you're right, pennylrichardsca. Thanks for your great links. One of them includes a photograph in which she's wearing the same incredible costume as Delibes in the opera "Lakme." We'll add a note with this information next time we update the record. Good work!

    May Esther Peterson Thompson (October 7, 1880 – October 8, 1952) was an opera singer for the Metropolitan Opera Company. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_Peterson_Thompson I wrote this short entry in Wikipedia for the last time she appeared. Note that her authority control file has her wrong year of birth: id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2009152616.html
