Frank Silverstadt (September 8, 1892 in Boston, Massachusetts – June 14, 1960 in Manhattan, New York)[1], better known by his stage name Frank Silver, was an American songwriter, jazz drummer and vaudeville performer. He was best known for co-writing and co-composing the popular song "Yes! We Have No Bananas" in 1923 with Irving Cohn. He wrote at least 75 songs in his career. He had a dance orchestra that played many songs, interestingly not including "Yes! We Have No Bananas."
