In her retirement Lehmann seemed as active as she was during her opera and recital days. Another page offers her art work, and still another her teaching. This page tries to keep up with Lotte Lehmann as she visited the re-opening of the Vienna Opera, was honored by universities and foundations, had a street named for her, made a movie and got a misspelled star in Hollywood. The enlarged photo is from the dinner following the closing of the old “Met” in 1966 where she proudly wears her medals.
