Best Answer

She retired in 1965, with no clear reason given.

However, since she was born in 1897, by 1965 she was 68 years old, and after completing her final tour, may have felt that her voice would not serve her or her audience as well as she wanted.

She did, however, remain active, sometimes narrating events, until very late in her life.
