It's funny to look at the famous pictures of her with such serious, agressive expressons and then to hear her voice. It's so much higher and sweet sounding than I expected!
-
I'm her big, i can say, fan.
The first time i've heard this (and that was probably six months ago) I was completely shocked. She has an amazing voice!

Pretty voice.

Sweet voice. Wish she would have acted into her later age. Unless she didn't want to be a character actress?
-
She's got a very nice voice - the interviewer's voice, on the other hand, is raspy and uninflected.
Too bad she didn't make any more movies, as she says she's going to in this interview.

great voice for a vamp
-
@loverofoldtimes sounds like she married very well.
-
not the voice i was expecting. I thought it was going to be deep and mystical. Hers is so-average.
-
I thought she had a lower voice, like Pola Negri's. But I like it, it's very feminine and sweet. And, thanks a lot for this audio, I think it's a jewel for all of us that enjoy watching and looking for rare material of old movie legends like she :).

@BeautyBoyTV She was from Cincinnati!

Seriously considering naming any daughter I may have Theodosia... I think Theda is a really cool name :D
-
WOW. I would not have thought her voice was like this. So normal. haha
Virginia O'Brien had a rare aircheck of the Groucho Marx wartime radio series "Blue Ribbon Town," on which Theda Bara was a guest. Groucho addressed her as "Miss Bara".

@aeichler How interesting I've never heard that before! Is it available anywhere? What year/series to look for?
