With a teacher like Broadway lgened Oscar Hammerstein II, Steve became even more passionate about music--choosing notes, choosing words, and putting it all together, piece by piece. Writing music and lyrics for musicals wasn't easy, and note everyone loved Steve's new and unusual shows. But Steve didn't give up. He loved the challenge of figuring out the pieces and giving audiences and performers the thrill of surprise. And above all else, Steve loved working together on shows with the people he deeply admired.
