About

Harry B. Smith (December 28, 1860 – January 1, 1936) was a writer, lyricist and composer.

The most prolific of all American stage writers, he is said to have written over 300 librettos and more than 6000 lyrics.
He worked with Victor Herbert, John Philip Sousa, Jerome Kern, and Irving Berlin, including Berlin’s first musical, Watch Your Step (1914). He also wrote the book or lyrics for several versions of the Ziegfeld Follies.

Smith was also a devotee of Charles Dickens. He collected a substantial amount of Dickens memorabilia, enough to edit a collection of his early letters.
