SOMEWHERE FORME – A BIOGRAPHYOF RICHARD RODGERSby Meryle SecrestApplause BooksNo American composer has beenmore widely celebrated, nor soconsistently misunderstood asRichard Rodgers. Although he was

one of America’s most brilliant and prolific composers,whose credits include more than 900 published songs,40 Broadway musicals and numerous films, Rodgers iswidely believed to be the almost stolid opposite of whohe really was. Meryle Secrest shows us for the first timehis complex nature and the inspiration for his art.Looking intensely at Rodger’s unparalleled career,Secrest follows his close and fruitful workingrelationship with Lorenz Hart, a collaboration thatresulted in more than thirty musicals but was ultimatelyundone by Hart’s alcoholism. Moving on to Rodger’ssecond collaborator, Secrest records the triumphs withthe gifted and more stable Oscar Hammerstein,including Carousel, South Pacific and The King and I,along with many more. Rodgers’ personal life isexplored, as well. Secrest writes about the composer’schildhood, and how, from an early age, he used music toescape. And she explores Rodgers’ own battle withalcohol, as well as the deep tensions in his 49-yearmarriage to Dorothy Feiner. Somewhere for Me is botha vivid portrait of American musical theatre, and anilluminating examination of one of its greatest artists.______00314609 (462 pages,
