William Jerome
William Jerome (William Jerome Flannery, September 30, 1865 – June 25, 1932)〔 was an American songwriter, born in Cornwall-on-Hudson, New York of Irish immigrant parents, Mary Donnellan and Patrick Flannery. He collaborated with numerous well-known composers and performers of the era, but is best-remembered for his decade-long association with Jean Schwartz with whom he created many popular songs and musical shows in the 1900s and early 1910s.
==Early career==
By the time he was seventeen, Jerome was singing and dancing in vaudeville. He toured with minstrel shows and performed in blackface.〔 He met Eddie Foy while on tour and they became friends;〔 the two would work together often throughout their careers. By the late 1880s Jerome was performing as a parody-singer at Tony Pastor's.〔 He also began to write songs and his efforts met with some success. In 1891, Jerome composed "He Never Came Back",〔 sung by Foy in the musical ''Sinbad'', which became the hit of the show.〔 Throughout the 1890s he continued to perform, and his reputation as a lyricist grew gradually. He wrote "My Pearl is a Bowery Girl" (1894) with Andrew Mack which became a number one record for Dan W. Quinn.〔
He met and married another vaudeville singer, Maude Nugent, probably in the early 1890s.〔 He and Nugent had at least one child, Florence, born in 1896.〔
Jerome is sometimes credited with suggesting the bicycle lyric of "Daisy Bell" (1892) to Harry Dacre.〔
