- <p> It's happened to lawyers, doctors and other licensed
- professionals, but it had never happened to an opera star until
- last week. That's when a New York State appeals court ruled that
- world-class mezzo-soprano Frederica von Stade must share with
- her ex-husband Peter Elkus any career income earned during their
- 17-year marriage. The ruling defined Von Stade's career and
- celebrity status as "marital property," entitling Elkus, the
- singer's voice coach and adviser during her rise to stardom, to
- a chunk of Von Stade's earnings.
