AUTHORS
ALAN JAY LERNER AND FREDERICK LOEWE
Alan Jay Lerner (bookwriter and lyricist) and Frederick Loewe (composer) wrote some of the American theater鈥檚 most memorable musicals, including 鈥淢y Fair Lady,鈥 鈥淐amelot,鈥 鈥淏rigadoon,鈥 鈥淧aint Your Wagon鈥 and 鈥淕igi.鈥 Among their most famous songs are 鈥樷橝lmost Like Being in Love,鈥欌 鈥樷橧 Could Have Danced All Night鈥欌 and 鈥樷橳hank Heaven for Little Girls.鈥欌 Lerner was born in New York City in 1918 and attended Choate and Harvard. Loewe was born in Berlin in 1901 to Viennese parents, made his piano debut with the Berlin Symphony Orchestra at the age of 13, and came to the United States in 1924. The two met in 1942 at the Lambs Club in New York City when Loewe approached Lerner about collaborating on a show. In 1947, they had their first Broadway hit, 鈥淏rigadoon,鈥 followed in 1951 by a second success with 鈥淧aint Your Wagon鈥 which included such songs as 鈥淭hey Call The Wind Maria,鈥 鈥淚 Talk to the Trees鈥 and 鈥淲and鈥檙in鈥 Star.鈥 In 1956, 鈥淢y Fair Lady鈥, with Rex Harrison and Julie Andrews, opened on Broadway. Often called the 鈥減erfect musical,鈥 the show ran for 2,717 performances and the cast album sold more than five million copies. Their 1958 film musical, "Gigi," won nine Academy awards and, in 1960, came the last great success of their partnership, 鈥淐amelot,鈥 starring Richard Burton and Julie Andrews. In 1974, Lerner lured Loewe out of retirement to work on their last venture together: a film version of Antoine de St Exup茅ry鈥檚 鈥淭he Little Prince.鈥 Lerner went on to collaborate with other composers including Burton Lane, Leonard Bernstein and Andre Previn. He died in 1986 at the age of 67. Loewe died two years later at the age of 86.
