Ivor Novello

Composer, playwright and actor Ivor Novello was born 15 January in Cardiff, Wales in 1893 and died in London on 6 March 1951. His rising success came from a string of musical comedies written, composed, and acted in during the 30s and through the war years, culminating in Perchance to Dream in 1945.
