Amanda Aldridge children: Did Amanda Aldridge have kids?
Amanda Aldridge was born in Upper Norwood, London, on March 10, 1866, the third child of African-American actor Ira Frederick Aldridge and his Swedish second wife, Amanda Brandt.
Rachael and Luranah were her sisters, and Ira Daniel and Ira Frederick were her brothers.
At the Royal College of Music in London, Aldridge studied voice under Jenny Lind and George Henschel, as well as harmony and counterpoint with Frederick Bridge and Francis Edward Gladstone.
When her sister, opera singer Luranah Aldridge, got ill, she took care of her, declining an offer from W.E.B. Du Bois to attend the second Pan-African Congress in 1921 with a note explaining: “My sister, as you know, is completely dependent… I’m only able to leave for a few minutes at a time.”
Muriel Smith sang Montague Ring’s “Little Southern Love Song” on the British show Music For You, where Aldridge made her first television appearance at the age of 88.
She died in London on March 9, 1956, a day before her 90th birthday, after a brief illness.
