Composer and lyricist Stephen Sondheim appeared on Nightline on December 28 to chat about everything from wanting to rewrite his famous WEST SIDE STORY lyrics to the release of his new book 'Finishing the Hat: Collected Lyric. Check out the clip below!

Stephen Sondheim has won seven Tonys, an Academy Award, seven Grammys, a Pulitzer Prize and the Kennedy Center Honors. His career has spanned more than half a century, his lyrics have become synonymous with musical theater and popular culture, and in Finishing the Hat-titled after perhaps his most autobiographical song, from Sunday in the Park with George-Sondheim has not only collected his lyrics for the first time, he is giving readers a rare personal look into his life as well as his remarkable productions.
