Jerrald King Goldsmith 
      American composer (b. Feb. 10, 1929, Los Angeles, Calif.—d. July 21, 2004, Beverly Hills, Calif.), demonstrated his versatility and originality in more than 300 scores for movies and television programs, often experimenting with unusual techniques, such as having horn players remove the mouthpieces from their instruments, to create a specific effect. Notable among his film scores were those for Planet of the Apes (1968), Chinatown (1974), The Omen (1976), for which he won an Academy Award, Total Recall (1990), and L.A. Confidential (1997). TV credits ranged from Studio One in the late 1940s to Gunsmoke, Perry Mason, and The Twilight Zone in the '50s, Dr. Kildare, Ben Casey, and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. in the '60s, The Waltons in the '70s, Star Trek: The Next Generation in the '80s, and Star Trek: Voyager in the '90s, as well as the fanfare for the Oscar telecasts (from 1998).
