Mabel Wayne (born Mabel Wimpfheimer, July 16, 1890 – June 19, 1978)[1] was an American musician, composer, and screenwriter.[2] She is noted for being one of the first female composers to write successful hit songs.[3] Her music career spanned from the 1920s until her death in 1978. Her songs included "In a Little Spanish Town" (1926), "Ramona" (1928), and "It Happened in Monterey" (1930).

Many of her songs were widely covered by various musicians.

Biography

She was born in Brooklyn, New York as Mabel Wimpfheimer in 1890 (although she later preferred to use the dates 1899 and 1904),[citation needed] and studied piano in Switzerland and then at the New York School of Music.

Wayne performed as a concert pianist and singer, and as a dancer in vaudeville.[3] In the 1920s and 1930s she collaborated with several lyricists including L. Wolfe Gilbert, Sam M. Lewis and Joe Young. Wayne was particularly noted for her Spanish-American themed songs. She wrote for movies including King of Jazz, and later for British films, including Dance Band (1935).[4] During the 1930s, she made various recordings singing and playing piano.[1]

After a short-lived marriage in the 1910s, Mabel Wayne married Nick Campbell, a music publisher based in New York, on March 15, 1948 in the Little Church of the West, located in Reno, Nevada. Lanny Ross and his wife served as the best man and matron of honor.[5]
