Hello media-ga,
Anna d'Angeri was born on 14 November 1853 in Vienna (Wien), and died
on either 14 December 1907 or 16 December 1908 in Trieste (Triest).
(I cannot determine from the web pages which death date is correct.)
Her birth name was apparently Anna Angermayer, and perhaps other names
in addition. She is listed as "Anna Angermayer de Redenburg or
d'Angeri", and as "Anna Helene Angeri" or "Anna Angermayer de Angeri".
I have not seen any indication on the Web of the names of her parents
or relatives. However, the birth and death dates, along with her
names, should help you if you wished to contact a specialist in
Austrian genealogy. (Given that her real name is apparently
Angermayer, and was born in Austria, I assume that she is not related
to Elena D'Angri, from your previous question.)
It appears that she is best known for two roles, both performed at La
Scala in Milan:
1) Maria Tudor, in the opera of that name by Antônio Carlos Gomes,
premiering on 27 March 1879.
2) Amelia, in the revised Simon Boccanegra by Giuseppe Verdi,
premiering on 24 March 1881.
She also apparently performed in Verdi's Ernani at La Scala -- with
her co-star from Simon Boccanegra, Victor Maurel -- as well as in Il
Trovatore.
