Personal Quote:

[on Jerome Kern] He didn't play the piano very well - not a great pianist like Arthur Schwartz, or Harold Arlen, or Cy Coleman, who play beautifully. He'd play something he'd written, and if there was an expression on your face that showed you didn't care for it - he'd react very quickly to what you thought - he'd turn this little statuette around, facing away, and say 'Wagner doesn't like it'.
