	Roger Edens - Biography - Moviefone
		Roger Edens was the single most important creative musical figure at MGM -- and, possibly, in Hollywood -- from the end of the 1930s until the beginning of the '60s.
		Edens was the musical arranger for the Cole Porter score of Broadway Melody of 1940, the musical adaptor of the Judy Garland/Gene Kelly vehicle For Me and My Gal (1942), and the adaptor of the Broadway score on Vincente Minnelli's debut film, Cabin in the Sky (1943).
		Edens proved to be among the relatively few major creative talents who was allowed to move up in the pecking order (in terms of both responsibility and screen credit) beyond the music category.
