Allie Wrubel
Allie Wrubel, born Elias Paul Wrubel on January 15, 1905, in Middletown, Connecticut, was a prominent American composer and songwriter. He hailed from a Jewish family that established the Wrubels department store in Middletown. Wrubel attended Wesleyan University and Columbia University, where he developed his musical talents and began playing saxophone and clarinet with various swing bands, including the Paul Whiteman Orchestra.

In 1934, Wrubel moved to Hollywood to work as a contract songwriter for Warner Bros., contributing to numerous film musicals. His collaborations with lyricists such as Mort Dixon, Abner Silver, and Herb Magidson resulted in popular songs like "The Lady in Red," "Flirtation Walk," and "Music, Maestro, Please." Wrubel's partnership with Ray Gilbert produced the Oscar-winning "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah" for Disney's Song of the South in 1947.

Wrubel's extensive catalog includes hits like "Gone with the Wind," "The Masquerade Is Over," and "I'll Buy That Dream." He was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1970. Wrubel passed away from a heart attack on December 13, 1973, in Twentynine Palms, California, leaving behind a significant legacy in American music.
