Alan Jay Lerner (August 31, 1918 – June 14, 1986) was an American Broadway lyricist and librettist.
Lerner was born in New York City on August 31, 1918, the son of Joseph Jay Lerner, the wealthy owner of a chain of dress stores (the Lerner Stores).
Lerner was a handsome, sophisticated gentleman with an addictive personality; for over 20 years he battled an amphetamine addiction, and Lerner would marry eight times (one ex-wife quipped, "Marriage is Alan's way of saying goodbye").

Lerner won one of the film's nine Oscars for his screenplay, and another, with Loewe, for the title song.
In the early 60s, partly because of the composer's ill health, Lerner and Loewe ended their partnership, coming together again briefly in 1973 to write some new songs for a stage presentation of Gigi, and, a year later, for the score to the film The Little Prince.
Lerner won a Grammy award for the title song, and maintained that it was his most frequently recorded number.

Adapted by Lerner from George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalian, if the musical loses much of Shaw's ferocity and fire, it makes up for that with a warmth and sophistication that has made My Fair Lady one of the best-loved, as well as one of the greatest, of all musicals.
Lerner and Lane teamed up one last time in 1979 for the musical Carmelina, which, although it was failure, included the beautiful "One Last Walk Around The Garden".
Alan Jay Lerner had eight wives, the last of them actress Liz Robertson, who was with him when he died of lung cancer in New York City on June 14, 1986.
