We Need A Little Jerry Herman

Jerry Herman, one of the most successful Broadway composers of our time, has died.

He didn't just write hits, he wrote blockbusters: Hello, Dolly! (2844 performances), Mame (1508 performances) and La Cage aux Folles (1761 performances), to name his biggest shows.  But hit or flop, he wrote many beautiful, memorable songs--both the words and music.
