Violetta (born 1906/1907, date of death unknown) was the stage name of Aloisia Wagner, born without legs or arms. She was born in Hemelingen, Germany.
In April 1924 Violetta immigrated to New York City, United States from Hemelingen, Germany, with her step brother, Karl Grobecker, and performed in sideshows as a singer, including Coney Island’s Dreamland and the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus. She moved herself by hopping from place to place on the bottom of her torso, and was able to manipulate objects with her mouth enough to comb her own hair, dress herself, thread a needle, and sew. Violetta was married and wore her wedding band on a gold chain around her neck.
