Author Description

In the course of a career which produced sixteen musicals, most of them written in collaboration with his long-standing partner Fritz Loewe, Alan Jay Lerner won a place among the greatest lyricists of the century. Songs like "On a Clear Day," "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face," "I Remember It Well," "On the Street Where You Live," and many others have transcended the musicals for which they were written and passed into common currency. This collection of Lerner's lyrics includes not only the much-loved songs from his musicals but also the less familiar work. Hardcover.
