Best Answer

The choreographer for the 1962 film version of 'The Music Man' was Onna White [March 24, 1922-April 8, 2005]. White previously had been responsible for the choreography for the stage version, in 1958. In fact, she received a Tony Award nomination for that version. Subsequently, she received a special Oscar for her choregraphy for 'Oliver!' [1968]. She was only one of two choreographers ever to receive such an honor. On the film version of 'The Music Man', she was assisted by Tom Panko [b. ca. 1926]. Panko again assisted White with 'Bye Bye Birdi' [1963].
