People

( fr ) Fred Ebb (April 8, 1933[1] - September 11, 2004) was a musical theatre lyricist who had many successful collaborations with composer John Kander. The Kander and Ebb team frequently wrote for such performers as Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera. Ebb's lyrics express an acerbic, cynical wit, though his well-known lyrics for New York, New York do not possess those qualities.
