List of Songwriters Hall of Fame inductees
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Songwriters Hall of Fame is an American institution founded in 1969 by songwriter Johnny Mercer and music publishers Abe Olman and Howie Richmond to honor those whose work represents a spectrum of the most beloved songs from the world's popular music songbook. The Hall of Fame only existed as an online virtual collection until 2010, when it was first put on display as a physical gallery inside The Grammy Museum in Los Angeles.[1]
Through 2019, 461 individuals have been inducted.[2][3][4][5]
