This public television special pays tribute to one of the most prolific lyricists in songwriting history. In a career lasting from the 1930s to the 1960s, Mercer crafted over 1,000 songs. With music by Harold Arlen, Jerome Kern, Hoagy Carmichael, Henry Mancini, Duke Ellington and others, many of these songs have become enduring classics of American popular music. Musical director Peter Nero and an all-star cast interpret 15 of Mercer's best-loved standards, including "Moon River", "Jeepers Creepers", "Skylark", and "One For My Baby".
