About Regina Rachel Zipper

Marriage https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:33S7-LBK5-GYH?i=172&wc=...

A.k.a. "Rosie"

cf. also biographies on son, Herbert J. ZIPPER, especially:

Music and the Holocaust: Zipper, Herbert http://holocaustmusic.ort.org/places/camps/music-early-camps/dachau...

"With a career that took him from Europe through the Philippines to the USA, the composer and conductor Herbert Zipper had a remarkable and international musical life. Born in Vienna in 1904 to an assimilated Jewish family, Zipper had a happy and comfortable childhood. His father was the son of a cantor, and his mother the daughter of a rabbi. Nonetheless his parents raised him and his siblings in a largely secular environment – like so many of their counterparts, they identified more as Viennese than as Jews. Zipper’s parents were great music lovers, and the children received an extensive musical education."
