  wbur.org Arts - Books - Kurt Weill On Stage
Hirsch readily admits that "the greatest Weill is the caustic, sly, potent yet world-weary Weill of Brecht-Weill." But he demands justice for what he believes to be the considerable achievements of the composer's post-Berlin period.
For Hirsch, the question boils down to whether it's fair to say that one of the finest composers for the popular stage in the 20th century sold out or went into decline after he fled the Nazis and resumed his career in America during the late '30s.
Hirsch is at his strongest as a determined historian, patiently chronicling the genesis of Weill's operas and musicals, the ins and outs, the ego-mongering aggression and tactical retreats of working relationships in the commercial theater.

 Kurt Weill, musical iconoclast / The case for him as a 'crossover composer,' not a sellout
Hirsch identifies a clear weakness in Weill's score for "Lost in the Stars" -- underwritten roles for the principals.
Hirsch records the insults Weill suffered (Brecht dubbed him "a phony Richard Strauss" and threatened to shove him down a flight of stairs) and reports on the requests and pleas for work that came from the financially stressed Brecht over the years.
Hirsch rejects the premise by arguing that Weill never strayed from his course as a musical iconoclast.

 One Weill, Indivisible: Tunes, Tomes, & Videos on TheaterMania.com
By examining the remarkably varied theater works that this composer wrote in collaboration with a remarkably varied list of lyricists and librettists, Hirsch situates Weill in the context of his times and the communities in which he functioned.
Hirsch rejects the notion that Weill's career is characterized by a yawning rift located in the mid-1930s, separating the European composer from the American one.
Hirsch, who teaches film at Brooklyn College of the City University of New York, has published 16 books, most notably a history of the Actors Studio and a study of film noir.

Following her divorce from Hirsch, the actress married David Cameron Palastanga with whom she had a daughter Christina, who now lives in the United States.
She had denied ever meeting Demandowsky after the Nazi surrender, but in her best-selling autobiography, she described the chaos in Berlin in spring 1945, and hints she was detained for a spell in a Russian camp, after donning a soldier's uniform.
But David Cameron seems to question parts of her account, and husband number one, Hirsch, recalls a day when both he and Knef had a "hardly coincidental meeting" with Demandowsky on a Berlin street shortly after the war.
