Bacharach also worked briefly with Hal's brother Mack David and his ex-wife Carole Bayer Sager.
Throughout his career, Bacharach was married to several notable women including actress Paula Stewart (1953-1958), actress Angie Dickinson (1965-1980), songwriter Carole Bayer Sager (1982-1991), and finally Jane Hansen since 1993. In recognition of his talent and contributions to music, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall Of Fame in 1971.
