Diana was a bit evasive about her age, but her birthday was the same as Schubert's - 31 January.

1905 is a possible birth-year - though I've also seen 1904 suggested.

She died on 12 March 1982.

@saltburner2 THE FACTS HAVE BEEN CLOUDED WITH THE YEARS. I HAD HEARD SHE WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO DEAL WITH, BUT ON MY MEETINGS WITH HER, I FOUND HER CHARMING. I REMEMBER SITTING OUT IN HER GARDEN WITH HER EATING CHICKEN SANDWICHES WHICH HER MAID PREPARED FOR US AND TALKING OUT THE OLD DAYS, SHE HAD TEARS IN HER EYES.

HAPPY DAYS NEVER TO RETURN....

This radio broadcast was made around the time of the publication of 'This Was Richard Tauber' - book, film and LP record - in which she collaborated with Charles Castle. It marked what would have been Tauber's 80th birthday in May 1971.
