...today would be the birthday of:
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart...he'd be 255 (amazing to think he was only 35 when he died! It pays to start early!)
Brilliant Broadway composer (Showboat and many others) Jerome Kern would be 125.
Buddy DeSylva (Broadway/Hollywod composer/producer) would be 116
Eternally lovely Donna Reed (It's a Wonderful Life) would be 89.
Lewis Carroll (Alice in Wonderland) would be 179
Broadway musical star (and perhaps remembered best today as Ethel Merman's best friend--she figures into endless apocryphal and vulgar anecdotes about Ethel) Benay Venuta....today's her centenary.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You are remembered....
