She appeared in the American premiere of Boris Godunov as the Nurse in 1912 with Arturo Toscanini conducting.[3] On March 12, 1913 she was to sing the role of Giulietta in Les Contes d'Hoffmann when she fainted and her role was taken over by madam Fremsted who had sung the role when it premiered in the United States.[4] With the company she notably portrayed the role of the Peasant Woman in the United States premiere of Gustave Charpentier's Julien on February 26, 1914.
