Summary
In the pantheon of composers for stage and screen, few were as prolific as Cole Porter. Broadway and Hollywood kept him well occupied from 1930 to 1960. His urbane personality provided the ultra sophisticated, witty and occasionally risque songs that found their way into many of his Broadway shows. For Hollywood, with its then more stringent moral code, he turned down the heat, still managing to deliver the goods.
