Hamlin, George, 1869-1923
Variant namesAmerican tenor, 1868-1923. George Hamlin was a student of George Henschel. He made a European tour 1904-5, and sang with the Chicago Opera Co., 1911-15, but achieved his principal reputation as an oratorio and lieder singer. He was known particularly for his advocacy of the songs of Richard Strauss. His daughter Anna Hamlin, a soprano, sang minor roles with the Chicago Grand Opera and later taught voice at Smith College. She subsequently established a very successful vocal studio where her students included Judith Raskin. She also wrote a book of reminiscences about her father.
