Harry Link
Harry Link (born John Harry Linkey, January 25, 1896, Philadelphia – July 5, 1956, New York City) was an American vaudeville actor and songwriter. He began publishing songs in his late teens and co-wrote "Along Came Ruth" with Irving Berlin in 1914. Link attempted a career in acting, appearing in the 1916 film The Masked Rider, but soon focused on music publishing. In 1929, he co-wrote "I've Got a Feeling I'm Falling" with Billy Rose and Fats Waller, which became a hit. He also co-wrote "Gone" with Andy Razaf and "I Hate to Leave You Now" with Dorothy Dick, whom he married in 1916. Link and Dick collaborated on several songs, including "By My Side" and "Until We Meet Again Sweetheart." In 1936, he co-wrote "These Foolish Things" with Jack Strachey and Eric Maschwitz, which became a major hit. After 1937, Link concentrated on the business side of the publishing industry.
