Composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim is the most important artist to work in the American musical theater over the past half-century.

Sondheim's works include West Side Story (1957), Gypsy (1959), A Little Night Music (1973), Sweeney Todd (1979), and Into the Woods (1987). He is currently working on a two-volume edition of his complete lyrics with notes and commentary.
