Marvin Hamlisch: The Entertainer | CUNY Laureates

Marvin Hamlisch was already in the midst of a successful music career when he graduated from Queens College in 1967. Beginning with his first hit "Sunshine, Lollipops and Rainbows" in 1965, Marvin went on to become a famous and beloved composer for film and Broadway. Among the many awards he won during his career were Oscars and Grammys for The Sting and The Way We Were, a Tony Award and a Pulitzer Prize for A Chorus Line, and Emmy Awards for Barbra: The Concert, making him one of the rare individuals in history to earn both an "EGOT" and a Pulitzer. But in interviews and in his own memoir, Marvin confessed to a feeling of longing for something more than success and accolades. Would he be able to find it?
