Personal Quote:
[on his score for The Lion King (1994)] I'd never written for talking fuzzy animals before. I knew how to write to human emotions but these were animals. It took me a while to sort of get over that and do what you do which is just treat them like human characters. See more »Trivia:
He is the only composer to have done scores for films about Batman and Superman. See more »Trademark:
Famous for his frequent use of what is known as a "Bwaum" wherein a major plot point is revealed and the music blasts out a single note loudly See more »Star Sign:
