Her younger sister, Lydia, was living in a Manhattan apartment building at 130 West 57th Street that her husband, Dr. David Jedwabnik had inherited from his brother, Abram, in 1949. Vera spent the rest of her life teaching acting lessons based on the Stanislavski's system under the pseudonym Vera Vlasova at her studio in her flat on Orchid Avenue in Hollywood. Her professional name, "Vlasova", was the name of Vera Baranovskaya's character in Mother, a film based on the novel by Maxim Gorky and directed by Vsevolod Pudovkin in 1926. For over twenty years she went on lecture tours around the world lecturing as the "Foremost authority on the Stanislavski Method". On October 7, 1983, Vera was at Los Angeles International Airport about to board a flight to New York City to visit her sister, Lydia, en route to give a lecture at the Moscow Art Theatre when she suffered a sudden stroke as she was arguing with the baggage handler about the treatment of her luggage.

Vera, living in Calcutta with her son on her own earnings and without any support from her husband, found "relief and solace" in the teachings of Islam. She cabled her husband with the news of her conversion to Islam and requested that he accept the Islamic faith. Eugene, a Greek Orthodox replied that his religious convictions were unshakable and "refused absolutely" to change his faith and insisted that their son remain Greek Orthodox. Vera, who had changed her name to Begum Noor Jehan at her conversion on 27 June 1940, applied to the High Court of Calcutta on August 5, 1940, for a suit declaring dissolution of her marriage to Eugene Tiscenko.
