Al Stillman (né Albert Irving Silverman; 26 June 1901 Manhattan, New York[1] – 17 February 1979 Manhattan, New York)[2] was an American lyricist.
He chose the name, reportedly, because it was the recognizable surname of a well-known New York banking family[citation needed].
After graduation, he contributed to Franklin P. Adams' newspaper column, and in 1933 became a staff writer at Radio City Music Hall, a position he held for almost 40 years.
Al Stillman collaborated with a number of composers: Fred Ahlert, Robert Allen, Percy Faith, George Gershwin, Ernesto Lecuona, Paul McGrane, Kay Swift, and Arthur Schwartz.
Al Stillman was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1982.
