Tamara Drasin (c.1905 – March 1943), often credited as simply Tamara, was a singer and actress who introduced the song Smoke Gets in Your Eyes in the 1933 Broadway musical Roberta. Drasin was born sometime around 1905 in the Imperial Russian village of Sorochintsï, in what is modern-day Ukraine. With her dark, exotic looks and throbbing vocal style, Drasin was ideal casting material for European characters in musicals of the 1930s.
