His early career was in Hollywood, working solely as a lyricist with Two Sleepy People and Heart and Soul amongst his early hits. As early as 1939 he had written both music and lyrics with the title song of the film Seventeen, but it was not until 1942 with Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition that he began consistently writing both words and music. Other Broadway successes include How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying (1961, to be revived this season on Broadway) and Where's Charley (1948), an adaptation of Charley's Aunt starring Ray Bolger. Tickets are $25.
