He wrote many popular and successful songs, including the theme song for the hit television show I Love Lucy. He was nominated for five Academy Award Nominations for his work writing lyrics for original scores for movies. He endured polio as a youngster which limited the use of his right hand throughout his life. Adamson died in Beverly Hills, California.
