This singer and actor of films, opera, radio and television is best remembered for his film partnership with Jeanette MacDonald in eight films, starting with "Naughty Marietta" in 1935 and finishing with "I Married an Angel" in 1942. TLS, 1p, 7¼" X 10½", n.p., 1939 June 19. Addressed to Barbara Kemp. Very good. Strong original folds; minor mounting traces on verso. Wonderfully cordial and personal early letter to an admirer, reading in part: "Yes, I visited Des Moines on my concert tour this spring -- and next season will be back in the Pacific Northwest, at Portland on February 17th. I do not have the local details, time, place, tickets, and so forth. I shall be back on the Chase and Sanborn radio program for the fall season beginning August 13th -- and your song request will not be overlooked. It is a favorite of mine too." Large, bold full signature in blue fountain pen. Recipient Kemp's return address shows Astoria, Oregon, hence the mention of Pacific Northwest. Her letter to him must have been exceptionally compelling to prompt such a detailed reply!

Nelson Ackerman Eddy was an American actor and baritone singer who appeared in 19 musical films during the 1930s and 1940s, as well as in opera and on the concert stage, radio, television, and in nightclubs. A classically trained baritone, he is best remembered for the eight films in which he costarred with soprano Jeanette MacDonald. He was one of the first "crossover" stars, a superstar appealing both to shrieking bobby soxers and opera purists, and in his heyday, he was the highest paid singer in the world. *** Jeanette Anna MacDonald was an American soprano and actress best remembered for her musical films of the 1930s with Maurice Chevalier (The Love Parade, Love Me Tonight, The Merry Widow and One Hour With You) and Nelson Eddy (Naughty Marietta, Rose-Marie, and Maytime). During the 1930s and 1940s she starred in 29 feature films, four nominated for Best Picture Oscars (The Love Parade, One Hour with You, Naughty Marietta and San Francisco), and recorded extensively, earning three gold records. She later appeared in opera, concerts, radio, and television. MacDonald was one of the most influential sopranos of the 20th century, introducing opera to film-going audiences and inspiring a generation of singers.
