Pauline Brutting Story (1869-1951)

Overview

According to Nora Hulse in her 60 Years of Ragtime Piano, Pauline Brutting Story was an American composer and publisher of popular music born in Cincinnati, Ohio. She studied music at Mt. Joseph-on-the-Ohio Academy and the Cinncinati Conservatory of Music. She began publishing her works in 1897 in Madisonville, Ohio and collaborated for many years with Robert H. Brennan. About 1910 she moved to New York - in all she published some 60 pieces with various publishers. She retired to St. Petersburg, Florida in 1927. In the ragtime world perhaps Keep A Shufflin' (1905) is her best known work.
