I added a few extra facts but essentially left this page alone, thinking it provided a succinct summary of a musically important writing team.--User:Daivd91

That is okay with me. You're dismissed!--OleMurder 23:13, 17 May 2005 (UTC)

Which spelling is correct: "Leiber" or "Lieber"? Both appear. Is it pronounced LYE-ber or LEE-ber?

"Leiber" is the correct spelling, and his name is pronounced LEE-ber. Laura Pinto 00:40, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

fwiw - both leiber and lieber are german words, leiber is pronounced lye-ber, lieber is pronounced lee-ber (leib=body, lieb=nice, cute). getting the ie/ei spelling right seems to be close to impossible to english speakers. Snottily 21:02, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Just to clarify, while Snottily may be correct about German pronunciation, Laura Pinto is, regardless, correct about both the spelling and pronunciation of Jerry Leiber's name. Pstoller (talk) 21:23, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
