From the Reading Eagle, January 2, 1925:
Gifted with a charming personality, Emma Noe has enjoyed a share of success that rarely falls to the lot of a young artist. She was born in Hopkinsville, Ky., and educated in Chicago. Upon graduating from Miss Baur's Conservatory in Cincinnati, she was granted an audition by the late Cleofonte Campanini, then director of the Chicago Opera Company, and an engagement as a member of that organization immediately followed. She has made appearances as solo artist with the Minneapolis and Cincinnati Symphonies, the North Shore Festival, and many others. Her New York debut as a recital artist took place last November at Aeolian Hall and was an acknowledged success.
From the Kentucky New Era, April 23, 1997:
