He was also responsible, along with DuBose Heyward, for the libretto to George's opera Porgy and Bess. The success the brothers had with their collaborative works has often overshadowed the creative role that Ira played. However, his mastery of songwriting continued after the early death of George. He wrote additional hit songs with composers Jerome Kern, Kurt Weill and Harold Arlen. His critically acclaimed book Lyrics on Several Occasions of 1959, an amalgam of autobiography and annotated anthology, is an important source for studying the art of the lyricist in the golden age of American popular song.

Le succès des œuvres des deux frères a souvent éclipsé le rôle créatif d'Ira. Cependant, il a poursuivi son art de parolier après la mort prématurée de George. Ira Gershwin a écrit des chansons avec les compositeurs Jerome Kern (Long Ago), Kurt Weill et Harold Arlen. Son livre Lyrics on Several Occasions, en 1959, mélange d'autobiographie et d'anthologie annotée, est une source importante pour étudier l'art des paroliers à l'âge d'or de la chanson populaire américaine.
