Biography 1961

 "Biography" program, hosted by Mike Wallace, originally aired 1961-1963, and at the beginning and end there was a black-and-white photo display including Babe Ruth, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and a woman whose name I didn't know.  I was able to do the David Wolper theme, which came just after the main theme at the end of the program, by ear from a videotape.  However, in July 2007, not having a score or recording of the main theme, I did a 17-second rendition of the melody from memory (with a brief counterpoint at its very end), and then added other instrumentation.
