Surname: Herrmann
Herrmann, the child of Russian Jews in New York City, studied at the Julliard School as a young man, and found a position as a staff conductor with CBS in 1934. He is best known for his collaborations with two of the movie industry’s most famous directors: Orson Welles and Alfred Hitchcock. He sco...

The studio, RKO, edited his work on Ambersons so severely that Herrmann threatened a lawsuit and demanded his name be removed from the credits.
Hermann scored a series of movies with Hitchcock beginning with The Trouble with Harry (1955). This movie was a box office bomb, perhaps because the world was not ready for its quirky dark sense of humor yet. It was in connection with this movie, though, that Herrmann wrote “Funeral March of the Marionette,” which Hitchcock would later use as the theme music for his television show.
