Hollace Shaw (July 24, 1913 - March 2, 1976) was a coloratura soprano[1] who performed on old-time radio and on the stage.

Early years

Shaw was born in Fresno, California.[1] Her father, Rev. Shirley R. Shaw,[2] was a minister, and her mother was a concert singer.[1] She was the oldest of five children,[5] one of whom was Robert Shaw, who founded the Robert Shaw Chorale and directed symphony orchestras in Atlanta, Georgia, and Cleveland, Ohio.[3]

Radio

Shaw was a featured soloist on Blue Velvet Music,[4] Saturday Night Serenade[5] and the featured female soloist on Song Time[6] and was a member of the cast of The Hour of Charm,[7] on which she was known as "Vivian."[8] She also had her own weekly program on CBS.[9]

Stage

Shaw's Broadway credits include Higher and Higher (1939) and Very Warm for May (1939).[10] The latter production included her introduction of the song All the Things You Are.[11]

Personal appearances

Shaw sang frequently with symphony orchestras around the United States and at Radio City Music Hall, in New York City.[15] She also performed in night clubs. Eugene Burr wrote about Shaw in a review in Billboard's October 12, 1940, issue: "She has an outstanding voice, one of the few real voices that have been developed in recent years..."[12]

Personal life

On April 12, 1944, Shaw married Clarence Turner Foster, a major in the Air Transport Command, in New York, New York.[13] She later married Dr. Frederick C. Schlumberger, a surgeon.[14]

Death

Shaw died March 2, 1976 in Los Angeles, California, at age 62. She was survived by her husband, two stepchildren, a sister and two brothers.[14]
