Harry Frazee(1881-1929)

IMDbProStarmeterSee rank
Theatrical producer Harry Frazee has gone down in history as the man who sold Babe Ruth to the New York Yankees while he was owner of Boston Red Sox. Frazee's other claim to fame besides peddling Ruth was producing the Broadway musical "No, No, Nanette" in 1925. The smash hit musical "No, No, Nanette" was based on the farce Frazee produced on the Great White Way in late 1919, "My Lady Friends".
