Amberson Productions card of Jack Gottlieb, inscribed by him in blue pen "with the compliments of" above his printed name. Jack Gottlieb (1930 - 2011) was an important composer, teacher and long time associate of Leonard Bernstein. Although he is primarily remembered as Leonard Bernstein’s ‘right hand man’ he was an important teacher and composer in his own right, particularly of music for the synagogue. Bernstein described Gottlieb as "one of the most important talents on the American musical scene.” In 1977 he joined Amberson, Inc. as publications director, where he edited and brought together in book form Bernstein's best-selling television lectures, The Joy of Music, and The Infinite Variety of Music. He also compiled the included comprehensive catalogues of Bernstein's compositions, music writings, recordings and television features, known as the Red Book.
