Lew Pollack
Lew Pollack was an American composer and musician born on June 16, 1895, in New York City. He attended DeWitt Clinton High School and was a boy soprano in a choral group led by Walter Damrosch. Pollack began his career as a singer and pianist in vaudeville acts and transitioned into writing theme music for silent films. He is known for composing several popular songs, including "That's a Plenty," a Dixieland standard, and "My Yiddishe Momme," famously performed by Sophie Tucker. Pollack also contributed music to Broadway musicals such as "The Whirl of New York" and "The Mimic World." His work extended to sound film scores, including "Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm." Pollack collaborated with lyricists like Jack Yellen and Paul Francis Webster. He passed away from a heart attack on January 18, 1946, in Hollywood, California. In recognition of his contributions to music, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970.
