Porter, Cole (Albert)

U.S. composer and lyricist. Born to an affluent family in Peru, Ind., Porter studied violin and piano as a child and composed an operetta at 10. At Yale University he composed about 300 songs, including “Bulldog.” He studied law and later music at Harvard. He made his Broadway debut with See America First (1916). He later went to France and became an itinerant playboy; though rather openly homosexual, he married a wealthy divorcée. Songs written for the Broadway success Paris (1928) led to a series of hit musicals, incl. Gay Divorcée (1932), Anything Goes (1934), Red, Hot and Blue (1934), the superb Kiss Me, Kate (1948), Can-Can (1953), and Silk Stockings (1955). He also worked on a number of films, including High Society (1956). Porter's witty, sophisticated songs, for which he wrote both words and music, include “Night and Day,” “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “Begin the Beguine,” “I Love Paris,” and “You're the Top.” A riding accident in 1937 left him a semi-invalid; he underwent 30 operations and eventually the amputation of a leg.
