Hugh Martin (August 11, 1914 – March 11, 2011) was an American musical theater and film composer, arranger, vocal coach, and playwright. He was best known for his score for the 1944 MGM musical Meet Me In St. Louis, in which Judy Garland sang three Martin songs, "The Boy Next Door," "The Trolley Song," and "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas." The last of these has become a Christmas season standard in the United States and around the English-speaking world. Martin became a close friend of Garland and was her accompanist at many of her concert performances in the 1950s, including her appearances at the Palace Theater.
Jean Bach (September 27, 1918 – May 27, 2013) was an American documentary film director, radio producer and jazz aficionado. Bach directed the 1994 documentary, A Great Day in Harlem, based on a 1958 photograph of the same name. [1]
Bach was born Jean Enzinger in Chicago in September 27, 1918, and raised in Milwaukee.[1] She made fredquent trips to Harlem and the Apollo Theater as a student at Vassar College.[1] She became a fixture in New York's jazz scene for the rest of her life.[1]
The black-and-white photograph which formed the basis of A Great Day in Harlem is a portrait of fifty-seven prominent jazz musicians who were photographed in front of a brownstone at 17 East 126th Street in the Harlemneighborhood of upper Manhattan. Bach learned that jazz bassist Milt Hinton had a home movie from the day of photo shoot in 1958.[1] She acquired Minton's home movie and used it or archival footage for her own film, A Great Day in Harlem, an hour-long documentary released in 1994.[1] Her film won the top award from the Chicago International Film Festival and earned an Academy Award for Documentary Feature nomination in 1995.[1][2]
Jean Bach died at her home in Manhattan on May 27, 2013, at the age of 94.[1] Her husband, Bob Bach, a production coordinator on What's My Line?, whom she married in 1948, died in 1985.
