Limmie Pulliam, tenor, passes at 50
Limmie Pulliam, a tenor celebrated for his heroic voice and pioneering achievements, died in Houston at age 50. After overcoming rejection due to his size and leaving opera for over a decade, he revived his career, debuting at the Metropolitan Opera as Radamès—the first Black singer to do so. Pulliam, known for performances at major venues including Carnegie Hall and with prominent orchestras, had recently performed Mahler’s Eighth Symphony with the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. His career was marked by a dramatic comeback driven by a renewed passion for singing.
