Autorenporträt
Scottish music hall performer and comedian Sir Harry Lauder is most remembered for his early 20th-century contributions to the entertainment business. Initially, Lauder performed in Scottish pantomimes before becoming well-known for his humorous monologues and songs. He embraced and popularised the Scottish music hall heritage by frequently performing in a kilt and tam o'shanter. Among his most popular songs are "Between You and Me," "Roamin' in the Gloamin'," and "Keep Right on to the End of the Road." Apart from his achievements in the entertainment industry, Sir Harry Lauder was actively engaged in humanitarian endeavours, especially during the First World War. He made a lot of trips to collect money for charities connected to the war, and in 1919 he was knighted for his services.
