Norman Gimbel may not be a name most pop music fans are familiar with but they might certainly know the songs and film and television themes this great lyricist has written over the decades. 'Killing Me Softly With His Song,' 'Boy From Ipanema!'

Bistro Award winning and MAC Nominated cabaret performer Jeff Macauley is definitely a Norman Gimbel aficionado. In fact, his 2012 show, It Was Me: The Lyrics of Norman Gimbel earned Macauley a BroadwayWorld.com New York Cabaret Award Nomination for 'Best Male Vocalist.'
