image request - Larry Wagner

Hello We Hope! Any chance of a photo of Larry Wagner that could be used. My best guess would be a publicity shot for his 1954 album. Thanks as always! 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 18:55, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

Super! He was an arranger for Paul Whiteman and then the Casa Loma Orchestra, worked as a bandleader in the mid-1950s, but perhaps only as a studio unit, not sure if there was a touring "Larry Wagner Orchestra". I'm still researching. Then he wrote musicals for high school performance. (perhaps I could insert an absurd Disney pun in the article. Or I could think better of it.) As always, I truly value your help and input. 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 19:18, 15 April 2014 (UTC)

I'm done with the article for now. I'm sure glad you looked at it, I tried and tried to find an obituary, but couldn't. Thanks for finding one, it added information I would have never found otherwise. I did change the layout, again, let me know what you think. 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 18:18, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

Wait, there's another way besides backing into it? Again, thanks for the help, and congratulations on the Sam Medoff find! One would think his photo would show up somewhere in advertising for his vocal coach work (unless he only did this in-house somewhere), but of course stranger things have happened. All the best, 78.26 (I'm no IP, talk to me!) 19:46, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
