Partial Discography
Regarding Hammerstein, Officer notes that "I know he's viewed as somehow being too simple, too direct." Also: "People say he's not as sophisticated as Porter or as witty as Hart. But he's written plenty of songs that are filled with poetry. 'All the Things You Are' is a classic, of course. But there also is a song like 'Don't Ever Leave Me,' which was also written with Jerome Kern, that is poetic and simple."
Awards
Officer received a MAC Award in 1997 for major male vocal engagement. The award was presented by the Manhattan Association of Cabarets and Clubs.
