Charles has composed copious chamber music, two piano concertos, a string quartet and two operas, after which, being broke like most composers, he was a rehearsal pianist and dance arranger for many shows, played in bar rooms, ballet classes, at weddings and strip joints (a particular boon for one who was to write the music for the film The Night They Raided Minsky’s) . One morning in 1960, he awoke to find he had written (with Lee Adams and Mike Stewart) Bye Bye Birdie (Tony Award), which is still among the most performed musicals in America, followed by Golden Boy with Sammy Davis, Jr (Tony nomination) . Mr Strouse composed I and Albert, which opened in 1972 in the West End at the Piccadilly Theatre, where Sarah Brightman made her stage debut . Then came Applause (Tony Award), It’s a Bird…It’s a Plane…It’s Superman, Rags (Tony nomination) and Annie (Tony Award) . In between, there have been scores for movies including Bonnie and Clyde and All Dogs Go to Heaven . Throughout his career, Charles has received the Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein, Frederick Loewe and the Leonard Bernstein awards for musical achievement . He is married to director/choreographer Barbara Siman and is the father of Benjamin (attorney, author and composer), Nicholas (psychotherapist), Victoria (screenwriter) and William (also a screenwriter) .
