About "More Than Santa Baby"
"More Than Santa Baby" is an exploration of the life and career of "Santa Baby" composer Philip Springer. The documentary was written, directed and produced by Springer's daughter Tamar, who has long believed that her father's musical talent and immense body of work deserves recognition beyond his classic holiday hit, "Santa Baby," co-written with lyricist Joan Javits in 1953. Springer's journey through 80+years in the music industry includes legendary artists of the 20th century, compositions in all idioms of music, and untold stories of Golden Era icons. The film is a fascinating walk through music history of the 20th century in short-form (40-minutes). More Than Santa Baby is an inspiring story of resiliance, perseverance and delivers the message, "it is never too late". It is a daughter's love-letter to her father and his music.
