Benj Pasek
Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, known together as Pasek and Paul, are an American songwriting duo and composing team for musical theater, films and television.
While Pasek usually writes lyrics and Paul usually writes music, they share credit for both elements. Both are graduates of the University of Michigan and winners of the American Theatre Wing's 2007 Jonathan Larson Grant, which honors achievement by composers, lyricists and librettists.
In September 2024, the duo became the 20th and 21st EGOT winners, breaking Robert Lopez's record for the fastest EGOT interval; the duo's interval was 7 years 7 months. Lopez & Pasek and Paul are also the three youngest EGOT winners, all at 39 years old.
