Broadway By Leonard Lyons A Broadway Song Saga
Norman Thomas and Warren G Harding origins tied to a 1939 campaign song written by seven composers led by Irving Caesar and Lou Silvers. Jolson urged the project, Will Hays funded it, and a Marion Ohio reception featured Caesar amid a night of industry figures. The piece, “Harding You're the One for Us,” sparked a drunken Marion trip and a celebrated premiere.
