It wasn't, however, until his song "Let's Do It, Let's Fall In Love" appeared in the 1928 musical Paris, that he had his first big hit.
A contemporary of George Gershwin, Richard Rogers and Jerome Kern, Porter broke from the simple sentimentality that dominated Tin Pan Alley.

 George Burns
At about the same time, George took on "Burns" as a surname—close enough to "Birnbaum" to be sure, but actually "Burns Brothers" was the name of the nearby coal yard where George and his other poverty stricken friends would regularly help themselves to whatever they were able to hide in their clothes.
George’s busy schedule continued until about a year and a half ago when at the age of 98, he had a serious fall in his bathtub at home and hit his head, which later necessitated surgery.
George was looking forward to attending the birthday celebrations held in his honor in January, but a bout with the flu prevented him from doing so.

 The Richard III and Yorkist History Server
After old Richard's death, a William Cely is the agent in Calais, not a brother to Richard and George; he writes to them as his masters.
George, it is true, does not seem to have been fully trusted by his father as a good business-man, as we may suspect from letters from the latter of August 17, 1478, April 30, 1479, June 14, 1479, and January 2, 1480.
George was a sportsman, whose horses were his chief interest, and he also was perhaps not in strong health always, to judge from the letter of November 11, 1479.
