Sherman dead at 86 |first=Ethan|last=Minovitz|publisher=Big Cartoon News |date=06 March 2012|accessdate=06 March 2012 }}</ref>) was an [[United States|American]] [[songwriter]] who specialized in [[musical films]] with his brother [[Richard M. Sherman|Richard Morton Sherman]]. Some of the [[Sherman Brothers]]' best known songs were incorporated into movies and animations like ''[[Mary Poppins (film)|Mary Poppins]]'', ''[[The Jungle Book (1967 film)|The Jungle Book]]'', ''[[The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh]]'', ''[[Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (film)|Chitty Chitty Bang Bang]]'', ''[[The Slipper and the Rose]]'', and the [[theme park]] song of [[It's a Small World|"It's a Small World (After All)"]].

| - | | + | |
| - | ==Early life==
| + | |
| - | Robert Bernard Sherman was born on December 19, 1925 in [[New York City]] to Russian-Jewish immigrants, Rosa and [[Al Sherman]]. Al Sherman, a songwriter, paid for Robert's hospital delivery costs with a royalty check that had arrived that day for the song "[[Save Your Sorrow]]". Al Sherman was to become a well known [[Tin Pan Alley]] songwriter.<ref>[http://www.songwritershalloffame.org/exhibits/bio/C348 Songwriters Hall of Fame: Robert B. Sherman], Hall of Fame website.</ref>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | As a youth, Robert Sherman excelled in intellectual pursuits, taking up the violin and piano, painting and writing poetry. Following seven years of frequent cross-country moves, the Shermans finally settled down in [[Beverly Hills, California]]. Some of the primary schools Robert attended in Manhattan included PS 241 and the [[Ethical Culture Fieldston School]]; in California, the [[El Rodeo School]].
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Throughout his years at [[Beverly Hills High School]], he wrote and produced radio and stage programs for which he won much acclaim. At age 16, he wrote ''Armistice and Dedication Day'', a [[stage play]] centered on contemporary 1940s Americans that showed how their lives were inextricably changed following the December 7, 1941, [[attack on Pearl Harbor]]. The play yielded thousands of dollars for [[War Bonds]] and earned a special citation from the [[United States Department of War|War Department]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.wwiimemorial.com/registry/search/pframe.asp?HonoreeID=2356454&popcount=3&tcount=64 |title=World War II Honoree: Robert Bernard Sherman |work=World War II Registry |publisher=National World War II Memorial |accessdate=June 16, 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite book |last=Sherman |first1=Robert B. |authorlink=Robert B.

| - | ==World War II==
| + | |
| - | In 1943, Sherman obtained permission from his parents to join the army a year early, at age 17. In early April 1945, he led half a squad of men into [[Dachau concentration camp]], the first [[Allies of World War II|Allied troops]] to enter the camp after it had been evacuated by the fleeing German military only hours earlier. On April 12, 1945, the day [[President of the United States|President]] [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] died, Sherman was shot in the knee, forcing him to walk with a cane for the rest of his life.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | For his service to his country, he received two [[Battle star|Battle Star]]s, a [[Combat Infantryman Badge]], an [[American Campaign Medal]], a [[World War II Victory Medal]], a [[European-African-Middle Eastern Campaign Medal]] and a [[Good Conduct Medal]]. In addition, Sherman was also awarded several Army Weapons Qualifications badges including a "[[Sharpshooter]] badge" with bars for both [[rifle]] and [[submachine gun]]; a "[[Marksman]] Badge" for [[carbine]] and an "Expert Badge" for rifle and [[grenade]].
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | During his recuperation in [[Taunton]] and [[Bournemouth]] in the UK, Sherman was awarded the [[Purple Heart]] medal. While still rehabilitating, Sherman first became curious about British culture, reading anything he could find on the subject. Once back on his feet, Sherman met and became friends with many British people, attaining first hand knowledge of the [[United Kingdom]], its customs and people.<ref>[http://www.mouseclubhouse.com/Interviews/robert-sherman/moose/index.htm Robert B. Sherman's autobiography, MOOSE], Mouse Clubhouse.</ref>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Years later, Sherman credited this time in his life as the origin of his fascination with England, believing that it proved an invaluable resource to his songwriting career. Many of his best-known works center around English stories, authors and subject matter.

That same year, the [[Sherman Brothers]] had their first [[Record chart|Top Ten]] hit with "[[Tall Paul]]", which was sung by [[Annette Funicello]]. The success of this song yielded the attention of [[Walt Disney]] who eventually hired the Sherman Brothers as Staff Songwriters for [[The Walt Disney Company|Walt Disney Studios]].

| + | |
| - | From 2002 until his death, Robert Sherman lived in [[London, England]]. He moved from [[Beverly Hills]] while [[Richard M. Sherman|Richard Sherman]] remained in California.

Also, both brothers travelled between Los Angeles, [[Broadway theatre|New York]] and London frequently which also facilitated their work. After Robert's move, the brothers continued to collaborate on various [[musical theatre|musical plays]] as well as a [[feature film|feature]], animated, [[film musical]] which incorporates their original story, song score and screenplay. In his later years, Sherman was a frequent visitor to Ireland, stating that the Irish persona was like a "continuous pantomime."<ref>[http://www.playbill.com/news/article/94790.html Playbill News: Sherman Brothers Working on New Musical Merry-Go-Round]</ref>
