Answer 1

A. Stephen Sondheim

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephen Sondheim is an American musician and composer. He is well known for his ability to compose musical works that express the stresses of urban life, the difficulties in building satisfying relationships, the painful and sometimes bitter path to maturity and the contradictory nature of American values. Many believe that this particularity of Sondheim's works is related to his extremely introvert personality.
