		Eric Maschwitz (1901-1969) (sometimes credited as Holt Marvell) was a British entertainer, writer and broadcaster.
		He wrote the screenplays of several successful films in the 1930s and 40s, but is perhaps best remembered today for his lyrics to 1940s popular songs such as "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square".
		He even turned his hand to the detective novel: Death at Broadcasting House, co-written with Val Gielgud and published in 1931, revolves around a radio play disrupted by the murder of one of the cast (ironically, the play is a murder mystery and the deceased was cast as the murder victim).

	George Posford
		The major turn in Posford's career was his meeting with the writer Eric Maschwitz in the early 1930s, a meeting that catapulted them into a sometimes highly lucrative and certainly prolific collaboration.

		Evangeline, an adaptation of James Lavers's Nymph Errant (for which Maschwitz wrote the lyrics) had Frances Day for its heroine, but even she couldn't save it from unwelcoming notices when it opened at the Cambridge Theatre in 1946.

		I have seen the authorship attributed three different ways: Eric Maschwitz/Manning Sherwin/Jack Strachey Eric Maschwitz/Manning Sherwin Eric Maschwitz with Manning Sherwin and Jack Strachey Maschwitz gets first billing in all instances.
		I don't have any biographical information on Sherwin or Strachey but Maschwitz was born in Birmingham, England in 1901 and died in 1969.
		Along with a large number of songs, perhaps his best known is "These Foolish Things (Remind Me of You)," Maschwitz also wrote a number of screenplays and a couple books.

		Eric Maschwitz wrote the lyrics and collaborated with Hy Kraft on the libretto while Bernard Grun adapted the music from the melodies of Dvorak in much the same way as those of Grieg had been in Song of Norway.
		The character of Dvorak could not be the romantic lead as in real life he was a happily married man with six children and physically, a bespectacled Puck-like figure.
		Sally Ann Howes had shown in a previous Maschwitz musical Romance in Candlelight that, as well as being fresh and lovely, she had a real singing voice.
