Petsális-Diomídis: It seems unlikely that Nina Foresti was Mary <strong>Callas</strong>. Mary was only eleven at the time, <strong>and</strong><br />
the performer here sounds like she is at least fifteen years <strong>of</strong> age, plus Mary had never studied the aria Un bel dì.<br />
The written application states ‘‘I have studied music for many years, my address is 549, 144th St.,’’ while <strong>Callas</strong><br />
lived at 569 192nd St. The h<strong>and</strong>writing is unlike Mary’s, <strong>and</strong> Mary was too young to have worked in the toy<br />
department <strong>of</strong> a department store, as stated in the interview that preceded the aria.<br />
