Charles Strouse

Charles Strouse is a legendary American composer whose catchy tunes have shaped Broadway and beyond. Best known for creating the iconic musical *Annie* (you’ve definitely hummed “Tomorrow” at least once), he’s also the genius behind *Bye Bye Birdie* and *Applause*, earning him three Tony Awards. Born in New York City in 1928, Strouse teamed up with lyricists like Lee Adams and Martin Charnin to craft songs that blend humor, heart, and toe-tapping energy. Beyond Broadway, he’s written film scores (*Bonnie and Clyde*), pop hits, and even classical pieces, proving his knack for crossing genres. Recent revivals and cast recordings—like *Rags* and *Nick and Nora*—keep his legacy fresh, reminding us why his music still feels like a warm, timeless hug. Fun fact: He also wrote the jazzy theme song to *All in the Family*!
