This reference provides a detailed overview of the work of Betty Comden and Adolph Green, who for over fifty years have collaborated on skits, musicals, revues, and films. The book begins with a biography and a chronology, which serve as a summary of the major events in their lives and careers. Then there are six sections detailing their work on Broadway. Other sections then document their radio and film work. The sections contain entries for all of the productions with which Comden and Green were involved, and the entries provide full information about the performances, including cast lists, plot summaries, reviews, and commentaries. These sections are followed by an extensive bibliography and an appendix that lists the awards and nominations that Comden and Green and their works have received. A thorough index adds to the usefulness of the book.

Reviews for Betty Comden and Adolph Green: A Bio-Bibliography

?The first book to give these two creator-artists their due. It is a particularly well-documented book because Comden and Green have read the manuscript and corrected certain facts and supplied others. This book is an afficionado's idea of heaven.?-Stage Directions
