    Irene Dalis as Ortrdin Lohengrin. Metropolitan Opera Photo by Louis Melancon
    Irene Dalis (born Yvonne Patricia Dalis, October 8, 1925 – December 14, 2014) was
    an American mezzo-soprano singer, who had a long international career at the highest levels of world opera.
    In 1946, she received her bachelor's degree from San Jose State College (now San Jose State University), where she regarded herself not as a singer, but as a pianist.
    Louis Mélançon
    (1901-1974) was the in-house
    photographer
    for the Metropolitan Opera from 1947 to his death in 1974.
