Hoagy Carmichael
Born: 22nd November 1899, Bloomington, Indiana
Died: 27th December 1981, California
Nationality: American
Hoagland Howard Carmichael was an American musician, composer, songwriter, actor, author and lawyer. Carmichael was one of the most successful Tin Pan Alley songwriters of the 1930s and 1940s, and was among the first singer-songwriters in the age of mass media to use new communication technologies such as old-time radio broadcasts, television, microphones, and sound recordings (musical records).
Carmichael composed several hundred songs, including 50 that achieved hit record status. He is best known for composing four of the most-recorded American songs of all time: "Stardust" (1927), with lyrics by Mitchell Parish, "Georgia on My Mind" (1930), with lyrics by Stuart Gorrell, "The Nearness of You" (1937), with lyrics by Ned Washington, and "Heart and Soul" (1938), with lyrics by Frank Loesser.
He also collaborated with lyricist-songwriter Johnny Mercer (1909-1976), on "Lazybones" (1933), and later "Skylark" (1941).
