Rose, [William Samuel] Billy [né Rosenberg] (1899–1966), producer and lyricist. The feisty, bantam, theatrical jack‐of‐many‐trades was born in New York and began his theatrical career as a lyricist writing the words for such hits as “A Cup of Coffee, a Sandwich, and You” for Charlot's Revue of 1926 and the title song for
Great Day (1929). Turning producer, he brought to Broadway
Sweet and Low (1930) and a reworked version,
Billy Rose's Crazy Quilt (1931),
The Great Magoo (1932),
Jumbo (1935),
Carmen Jones (1943), and
Seven Lively Arts (1944). Rose also owned the National Theatre, which he renamed the Billy Rose, and the
Ziegfeld Theatre, which he eventually sold to developers. Besides regular theatre work, he ran “Aquacades” at the New York and San Francisco World's Fairs and several popular nightclubs. Biography:
Only a Paper Moon: The Theatre of Billy Rose, Stephen Nelson, 1987.
