A Life Written in Song
Sherman wasn’t just any composer — he was one half of the iconic songwriting duo known as the Sherman Brothers, alongside his late brother Robert (who died in 2012). Together, they crafted some of the most beloved musical moments in the Disney canon, creating joyful tunes that have become part of family culture around the world.
From “It’s a Small World (After All)” — the cheerful anthem heard around Disney parks worldwide — to the unforgettable melodies of Mary Poppins, The Jungle Book, and numerous other classic films, Richard Sherman’s music has been a central thread in the soundtrack of childhood for generations.
