Possessing an exceptional soprano voice, she attended Loyola University of the South's College of Music, where she studied Voice under Elisabeth Wood (who taught Norman Treigle and John Macurdy). Following her 1942 graduation from Loyola, she matriculated at The Juilliard School, and in 1946 was heard in recital at Carnegie Hall. Tortorich returned to New Orleans, and began teaching Voice at Loyola in 1948; she also taught French Diction at the College of Music. Among her celebrated pupils are Ruth Falcon and Phyllis Treigle. Tortorich retired from Loyola in 2003 and died at the age of 102 in March 2017.[2] Sources
