If New York City Mayor Jimmy Walker had not been so likable, he would certainly have been branded a scoundrel.
Jimmy Walker was born in New York City's Greenwich Village on June 19, 1881, the son of an Irish immigrant, who later became political shaker and mover in Tammany Hall. Walker attended Xavier High School, which is a military school in Manhattan, and later New York Law School.
However, Walker's first love was music. Walker fell in with the Village's bohemian crowd, and instead of practicing law, he turned to songwriting. Two of the songs Walker wrote were: "There's Music In The Rustle Of A Skirt" and "Will You Love Me in December As You Do in May?" The later song made Walker a overnight sensation in Tin Pan Alley, with it's melodious refrain:krücken kaufen
