[4] Back at the Tamiment Playhouse, Liebman recalled, "I was doing all the writing myself" until 1938, when he began working with Sylvia Fine.
He placed Kaye and comedian Imogene Coca in a Tamiment musical, The Straw Hat Revue,[1] which moved to Broadway's Ambassador Theatre on September 29, 1939, where it ran 75 performances through December 2.
Liebman also introduced to Broadway such Poconos performers as Betty Garrett and Jules Munshin, and the choreographer Lee Sherman,[1] with whom he worked on "Make Mine Manhattan."
