Herbert Kretzmer, lyricist of Les Miserables, dead at 95

LONDON โ€“ Herbert Kretzmer, the journalist and lyricist best known for his English-language adaptation of the musical Les Miserables, has died. Tributes poured in from giants of the London stage, including theatrical producer Cameron Mackintosh, singer Elaine Paige and lyricist Tim Rice.

Until a young British producer by the name of Cameron Mackintosh invited Kretzmer to tea in June 1984 and his life changed.
