BILL ROGERS
An accomplished conductor, composer, pianist and arranger, Bill Rogers was born in Port Arthur. He graduated from Thomas Jefferson High School in 1956 and went on to graduate from Lamar University. His lengthy career includes arranging and conducting for such legends as Jerry Lewis, Frank Sinatra, Shirley McLaine, Frank Sinatra Jr., Tony Bennett, Bill Cosby, Johnny Carson, Barbara Streisand, Bob Hope, Steve Lawrence and Edie Gorme. For a class reunion and as a special tribute to his home town, Rogers wrote a symphonic arrangement of all the high school fight songs from Port Arthur including T.J. High's "The Old Maroon and Gold." Samples of his arrangements can be seen and heard in the Museum's Music Hall of Fame.
