Biography
Escribano was a Spanish tonadillera, a magnified and glorified vaudeville singer. Her single act constituted the entire performance, and featured the Spanish song type known as Cuplé. Characterized as being "one of the best of the type", she did not take well in some parts of South America. She was considered as unusually handsome with black hair and dark eyes.[1]
