Born June 18, 1913 in New York, NY, Sammy Cahn is remembered today as one of the 20th Century's most diverse lyricists. He scored his first hit at age 21, but his most famous works were written years later as collaborations with other popular songwriters of the era, Jule Styne and Jimmy Van Heusen, after ending a writing partnership with Saul Chaplin for Warner Bros. in the early 1940's.
Cahn's enormous popularity, however, stemmed from his songs written for old friend and leader of the Rat Pack, Frank Sinatra. As his relationship with Jule Styne weakened in the mid-1950's Cahn began writing songs for Sinatra including hits such as "High Hopes" and "Come Fly With Me."
From 1973 until his death in 1993, Sammy Cahn served as President Emeritus for the Songwriters Hall of Fame, "the organization dedicated to recognizing and honoring the accomplishments and lives of those men and women who create the popular songs that serve as the soundtrack of our lives."
