Songwriters Hall of Fame

From Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Songwriters Hall of Fame (SHOF) was founded in 1969 by songwriter Johnny Mercer, music publisher/songwriter Abe Olman, and publisher/executive Howie Richmond to honor songwriters.[1]

The Hall of Fame was formed in 1969, and in 2010, an exhibit was put on display online inside the Grammy Museum at L.A. Live in Los Angeles.[2] The Hall has no permanent place of residence, and because the awards are not televised, there would be no other digital recording of the event.[3]
