Jeff Barry is one of the greatest songwriters and producers in pop music history. Barry and his wife Greenwhich wrote dozens of hits for other artists including "Chapel of Love" and "Leader of the Pack" as well as "Then He Kissed Me", "Da Doo Ron Ron" and "Baby, I Love You". He introduced the world to Neil Diamond and wrote the theme songs to "The Jeffersons", "One Day at a Time" and "Family Ties".
