Artist History 'Artists of the Week' Hollywood Bowl Playbill, 1947: Daughter of the renowned operatic soprano Nina Koshetz, Marina Koshetz has risen to become a superlative star of radio, motion picture, opera, and concert. She was born in Moscow and came to this country when she was 16. Before arriving in the United States, however, she received her education in Paris, where she studied voice and piano. Miss Koshetz made her professional debut on a radio show singing the Jewel Song from "Faust". Her fine performance was rewarded with a 26-week contract. When World War II interrupted a European tour, she went to San Francisco to star in "Eugen Onegin", the role in which her mother made her operatic debut. Since that time she has toured the United States singing from Broadway to Hollywood. Miss Koshetz has made previous appearances in Hollywood Bowl in 1945 as soloist and in 1946 in "Carmen".
