Later Life[edit]

yes..i knew it!! reading about the Grossmont area of la mesa/el cajon, east san diego county, i knew about Schumann-Heink buying property, building a home that still stands, on the north face of Grossmont. So when i saw 'Stage Door'..i knew it!! the theatre matron was surely modeled after Ms Schumann-Heink. thanks soo much for confiming my gut instincts. 76.218.248.127 (talk) 04:24, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
