Performing at the Friars Club Tribute, 1969 (photo by Santiago Rodriguez)

Friars Club Roast
Waldorf-Astoria, New York
May 16, 1969

Harold Arlen, Richard Rodgers, Jule Styne, Cy Coleman, Jerry Herman, Harold Rome, and Burton Lane all paid tribute (and had a few laughs) to Barbra on this evening.

Barbra wrote, "For them to sing me their songs, with special lyrics written by Sammy Cahn (Richard Rodgers wrote his own), was an unforgettable honor."
