{"value"=>"<p><span class=\"persname\">Michael Stewart</span>, librettist, lyricist, playwright, and novelist was born Myron Rubin on August 1, 1924 in New York City. He attended Queens College and received a Master of Fine Arts in drama from Yale in 1953.</p> <p>During the 1950's he contributed sketches and lyrics to revues, among them: <span class=\"title\">Razzle Dazzle</span> (at the Edison Theater), <span class=\"title\">The Shoestring Revue</span> (1955), <span class=\"title\">The Littlest Revue</span> (1956) and <span class=\"title\">Shoestring '57</span>. He also wrote for television, most notably for Sid Caesar's <span class=\"title\">Your Show of Shows</span>, where he collaborated with Mel Brooks, Neil and Danny Simon and Carl Reiner.</p> <p>In 1954 Stewart met Charles Strouse and Lee Adams, and embarked on a career in the musical theater, to which he contributed some of the major Broadway successes of the sixties, seventies and eighties. With Strouse and Adams, Stewart eventually began work on a musical which opened on Broadway in 1960 as <span class=\"title\">Bye Bye Birdie</span>. <span class=\"title\">Birdie</span> ran for 607 performances and won Stewart his first Tony as the author. It was also the start of Stewart's relationship with Gower Champion, who directed and choreographed. Later the two would work together on <span class=\"title\">Carnival!</span>, <span class=\"title\">Hello, Dolly!</span> and <span class=\"title\">42nd Street</span>.</p> <p>Stewart's second Tony (1964) was for <span class=\"title\">Hello, Dolly!</span>, directed and choreographed by Gower Champion, with music and lyrics by Jerry Herman. Jerry Herman also worked with Stewart on the <span class=\"title\">Grand Tour</span> and <span class=\"title\">Mack & Mabel</span>. Another frequent collaborator was Mark Bramble. Together they wrote the librettos for <span class=\"title\">Elizabeth and Essex</span>, <span class=\"title\">42nd Street</span>, the <span class=\"title\">Grand Tour</span> and <span class=\"title\">Pieces of Eight</span>. Bramble wrote the book for <span class=\"title\">Barnum</span>, and Stewart the lyrics. Among Stewart's other collaborators were Cy Coleman (<span class=\"title\">Barnum</span>, <span class=\"title\">I Love My Wife</span>, <span class=\"title\">Nothing But the Truth</span> and <span class=\"title\">Seesaw</span>), Bob Merrill (<span class=\"title\">Carnival!</span>) and Jule Styne (<span class=\"title\">Pieces of Eight</span>)</p> <p>In addition to writing for the musical theater Stewart wrote plays ( <span class=\"title\">D.</span> and <span class=\"title\">Those That Play the Clowns</span>) He also wrote for television, worked at times on movie projects and published one novel (<span class=\"title\">Belle</span>)</p>"}

{"value"=>"<p>The Michael Stewart Papers span the years 1948-1987 and include drafts, correspondence, rehearsal notes, appointment books, clippings and contracts, reflecting the full range of Stewart's work as a writer and lyricist. The collection contains material from all of Stewart's major productions and from his unproduced work. Also represented are examples of Stewart's work for television and film projects, his fiction writing, sketches for revues, and early one act plays, some written while he was still a student. The bulk of the collection is made up of drafts of Stewart's writings and the focus of the papers is on the evolution of the plays from draft to finished work. Correspondence is mostly related to business concerns regarding royalties, copyright, and arrangements for foreign productions, but there are occasional letters from colleagues including <span class=\"persname\">Gower Champion</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Jacques Charon</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Alfred Drake</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Tammy Grimes</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Dolores Gray</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Jerry Herman</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Lainie Kazan</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Nedda Harrigan Logan</span>, <span class=\"persname\">Bibi Osterwald</span> and <span class=\"persname\">Max Showalter</span>.
