| Summary, Etc. |
"Before he became a greatest lyricist and composer, Stephen Sondheim was a boy filled with curiosity-a boy who loved figuring out how things worked. After his parents' divorce scattered the pieces of his life, he found comfort in music. Guided by his mentor, Oscar Hammerstein II, Stephen learned that the best way to get better was to practice: choosing notes, choosing words, and putting it all together, piece by piece. Writing musicals wasn't easy, and not everyone loved Stephen's new and unusual shows. But Stephen loved figuring it out, and loved the way the people in every show became like a family"-- Provided by publisher.
