Although he never learned to read music beyond a rudimentary level, he composed over 3,000 songs, many of which ,"God Bless America", "White Christmas", "Alexander's Ragtime Band", "There's No Business Like Show Business" left an indelible mark on American music and culture. In addition to his individual songs, he also composed 17 film scores and 21 Broadway scores.
