Herbert Kretzmer, OBE (born 5 October 1925) is a South African-born English journalist and lyric writer. He is best known as the lyricist for the English-language musical adaptation of Les Misérables as well as for his long-time collaboration writing the English-language lyrics to the songs of French chansonnier Charles Aznavour.
Kretzmer was born in Kroonstad, South Africa, in 1925. He is one of four brothers of Lithuanian Jewish immigrants William and Tilly Kretzmer, who fled the pogroms of Czarist Russia to settle in small-town South Africa early in the 20th century. His parents ran a furniture store. Elliot, the oldest of the brothers, flew as part of a bomber crew in the South African Air Force during the second World War, eventually becoming the Mayor of Johannesburg in 1991.
Kretzmer began his professional career writing documentary films and the commentary for a weekly cinema newsreel. However, he soon moved on to print journalism, initially as a reporter and feature writer for the Johannesburg Sunday Express. He relocated to London in the mid-1950s and pursued twin careers as journalist and lyric writer.

Hugh Jackman, Les Miserables Interview. Is there anything Hugh Jackman can't do? The actor, singer and performer has now topped himself by playing Jean Valjean in the big screen version of the hit musical Les Misérables. Tribute.ca spoke with Hugh in New York about the pressures that come with playing such a well-known character, the emotional toll the role took on him and acting opposite Colm Wilkinson, who originated the role of Jean Valjean for the Broadway stage.

From my recent album "I Say Yeh-Yeh" a new version of On My Own. On October 8th 2015 it has been 30 years of Les Miserables. On My Own was written for the character of Eponine which I had the good fortune to originate. The song was worked on and rewritten many times especially for my voice. Gwyneth Herbert, my record producer, said I really ought to include it on my French themed album "I Say Yeh-YehI, i was not so sure, I felt that On My Own was a wonderful part of my life such a long time ago and that it was better to leave it behind..but she persuaded me to record it again and she came up with such a fun arrangement. I am so happy that I listened to her and feel this new version is a lovely fun way to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Les Miserables Thank you to Claude Michel Schoenb...

My tribute to Jean Arthur (October 17, 1900 - June 19, 1991) After a rather long hiatus from YouTube I am back with this feeble attempt at honouring one of my all time favourite actresses, Jean Arthur. I chose to sing the Charles Aznavour / Herbert Kretzmer song "She", because I thought it was the perfect description of Miss Arthur - even though it's far from the perfect song for me to sing. Anyway .. I hope you'll like the video :-) I've used clips from the following films: The Jean Arthur Show (1966) Gunsmoke, Thursday's Child (1965) A Foreign Affair (1948) The Impatient Years (1944) A Lady Takes a Chance (1943) The More the Merrier (1943) The Talk of the Town (1942) The Devil and Miss Jones (1941) Arizona (1940) Too Many Husbands (1940) Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939) Only Angels...

We're big fans of it, and this is a tune from an old favorite of ours, Les Misérables. Myles did this arrangement for Rob to sing on back in our freshman year of college, just for fun. We did a little recording of it in a dorm room, and that was that. Fast forward to a few weeks ago -- our guitarist, Poh Hock, was competing in the .strandberg* Gu...
