    - Index for Wisconsin ASCAP Members 1948-1980

(last updated .02-14-2017) - Work in progress

      This page lists (or will when it's complete) every American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP)   Member from Wisconsin listed in the four editions of the ASCAP (Wikipedia)(   Biographical Dictionary. There is no intention of ever listing here any member who has never lived in Wisconsin. Thanks to the 1948 and 1952 Birthplace and Residence Appendixes, listing Wisconsinites in those editions was easily done. The 1966 and 1980 editions have to be searched manually and will take a long time in between other projects.

      New pages split off from my original Bibliography page
