"I've been intrigued with Peggy Lee since first seeing her on TV shows like 'Carol Burnett,' 'Merv Griffin' and 'Johnny Carson' in the early 70s," said host Stritch in an earlier statement. "She had such an original look and singing style but it wasn't until a few years later that I became aware of her incredible work as a songwriter. So Peggy seems like a perfect subject for the Lyrics & Lyricists series and I'm excited to be presenting an evening of her compositions and hit songs with the help of some of the greatest singers I know!"

Lee, born Norma Deloris Egstrom in 1920, joined the Benny Goodman band at age 19. Her hit songs ran the gamut from "It's a Good Day" to "Is That All There Is?," for which she won a Grammy Award. She was also known for her album "Black Coffee" and signature song "Fever." As a lyricist, Lee wrote dozens of songs with jazz and pop legends such as Harold Arlen, Cy Coleman, Quincy Jones and Marian McPartland. She was a lyricist and performer for Disney's "Lady and the Tramp," writing (with composer Sonny Burke) the classics "He's a Tramp" and "The Siamese Cat Song." As an actress, she received an Academy Award nomination for "Pete Kelly's Blues." For more information on the 2012-13 Lyrics & Lyricists concert series, click here.
