He began his career in New York in the mid 1910s as a Tin Pan Alley composer, writing tunes for the Ziegfeld Follies (including "Huggable, Kissable You", "Forever and a Day" and "Cherie"), the Greenwich Village Follies, and other theatrical productions. He was a staff pianist for Leo Feist (where in 1921 he gave Billy Rose his first songwriting break by contributing music for Ain't Nature Grand).^[2]

In 1933 he moved to Los Angeles and scored more than 300 motion pictures, and later in life published several fight songs.^[3]
