In 1939, Robert L. May wrote a children's story about a deer whose glowing nose made him treated like an outcast by his fellow reindeer, and then made him a hero as he led the entire team on a zero-visibility Christmas Eve. The story was published as a children's book with great success. Ten years later, the story was converted into a song. Gene Autry, singer and cowboy star of movies and television, had two 1947 hits with "Here Comes Santa Claus" and "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer." (Coca-Cola)
