545 |aVictor Herbert (1859-1924) was an Irish-born, German-raised American composer, cellist and conductor. Marie Duval was an aspiring singer working as a chorus girl in Baltimore, Maryland.
520 |a28 autograph manuscript letters (signed) from Herbert to Duval in which he counsels her about her voice, grammar and future prospects in his or other shows in New York. He also discusses his own career. Letters begin in December of 1922 and end in April of 1924. Herbert died on 1924 May 26. It appears unlikely that Miss Duval made her debut as part of Herbert's entourage.
