Don't remember if I shared this before. Made a Yma Sumac music video a while back, after watching Tod Browning's 1935 Mark of the Vampire. 🔥 #YmaSumac #TodBrowning #musicsky #filmsky

Born 103 years ago today: wondrous operatic Peruvian High Empress of Exotica #YmaSumac (née Zoila Emperatriz Chavarri Castillo, 13 September 1922 - 1 November 2008). All these decades later, her divine superhuman voice still inspires awe! Pic: young Sumac by Peter Stackpole for LIFE magazine, 1950.

The beautiful Yma Sumac statue at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, which is nearby her crypt that I designed a few months before her passing in late 2008.

It sure would have been great to see Yma Sumac on What’s My Line? The panelists would have been totally enchanted by Sumac, especially beautiful Arlene Francis and the flirtatious Bennett Cerf.
