Dorothy Dodd (1926 - 2006) was an Australian popular song composer and lyricist of the mid-twentieth century. She was best known for the English lyrics to the widely recorded song "Granada".
Her other works include English lyrics for "Historia de amor" by Carlos Almaran, entitled "The History of Love",[1] and lyrics for "Velvet Waters", an American instrumental composition by William Plunkett. Vocal versions of "Velvet Waters" were recorded in Australia by Bruce Gillespie (1960) and Tony Worsley (1965).[2][3][4][5]
