Born in New York, Leo Klatzkin came to Hollywood in the 1930’s and began composing music for motion pictures. He was prolific in composing and arranging music, conducting orchestras, and orchestrating soundtracks, mostly for television. Early in his career, he worked for Hal Roach Studios for eight years. He was the musical director for Roach’s films The Big Night and the black and white version of Tales of Robin Hood in 1951. He worked for 20th Century-Fox for a long while, and besides the original music for the My Friend Flicka series, he composed the music for the Broken Arrow television series which starred Michael Ansara. He is also remembered for the stirring music which opened and closed the Adventures of Superman TV series which starred George Reeves, and for the theme for Four Star Productions. Other notable television shows for which he composed music were Public Defender, Gale Storm’s Oh Susanna show, Rawhide with Clint Eastwood, Have Gun Will Travel, Cimarron Strip, Wild Wild West, and NBC Television’s Saturday Night at the Movies. He is said to have been especially proud of the episode scores he composed for CBS Television’s popular Gunsmoke series, which starred James Arness. He passed away in 1992 in Marina Del Rey, California. |
