But did you know that darn near every member of his family has achieved a considerable amount of success in show biz? In fact, over the last 10 to 15 years film score composer Thomas Montgomery Newman has probably worked on more A-list blockbusters than Cousin Randy. A graduate of Yale University, Newman headed for Hollywood in the early '80s. His first scores, including those for <i>Less Than Zero</i> and <i>The Lost Boys</i>, were primarily electronic. He started employing more standard orchestration in the '90s, and with the change came a long string of mega-hits, including but in no way limited to <i>The Shawshank Redemption</i>, <i>American Beauty</i>, <i>Scent of a Woman</i>, <i>Erin Brockovich</i>, <i>Finding Nemo</i>, <i>The Good German</i> and <i>WALL-E</i>. Newman has also plied his trade to television, most notably <i>Six Feet Under</i> and <i>Angels in America</i>. Much of his work post-<i>Shawshank</i> sees the composer filtering traditional orchestral music through the unconventional: world music-inspired percussion, ambient minimalism and so on. To date, Newman has won both Emmys and Grammys, but no Oscars, although he's been nominated eight times. - Justin FarrarOrchestral Scoresen720Mon, 30 Nov 2009 18:50:32 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://mp3.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.41939&rws=%2Fthomas-newman%2Fdiscography.rss Randy "short people got no reason to live" Newman is a household name.
