| Trivia |

- Singer/actress
- Awarded a Tony in 1956 for Supporting Actress in the musical, "The Threepenny Opera.'

- After Kurt Weill's death in 1950, Lotte, no longer confident of her talent, reluctantly agreed to appear in a memorial concert at Town Hall. The concert was such a success that it prompted annual revivals until 1965. She also spent the rest of her life dedicated to keeping Kurt's music alive through exhaustive searches of lost work, administering copyrights and, of course, her legendary concerts.
- In addition to her husband's legacy, Lenya was also a specialist in Brechtian theatre.
- Won Broadway's 1956 Tony Award as Best Supporting or Featured Actress (Musical) for "TheThreepenny Opera.'" She was also nominated in 1967 as Best Actress (Musical) for "Cabaret."
