Musical genre:
Country of birth:
United States
Country of location:
United States
Notes:
Irene Franklin may or may not have materially contributed melodically to most of the songs she is credited with, but she was a force behind the spread of American ragtime in other parts of the world, and had enough musical experience to have enabled her to compose music. It is likely she contributed more than just a bit to the songs she wrote with her husband Burt Green, and perhaps even her second husband Jerry Jarnagin, so she will be regarded here as a composer.
