Eva was placed in an orphanage and when she became of age she was released with 25 cents and she didn't know what to do or where to go. She went into a nearby theatre where the opera "Tales of Hoffman" was playing. Baccarole, a beautiful melody from the opera, became her favorite and is included here. She became a governess and worked in candy and cigarette factories to support herself. Later, she was a riding instructress for the Kenny Riding Academy Stables.
