name: Don Davis
notes: 'A native of Anaheim, California, Emmy winning composer Don Davis began playing
  trumpet and piano at the age of nine, and started writing music at twelve. As his
  affinity for music grew, so did his aspirations, and soon he was composing and arranging
  orchestral charts for local jazz ensembles that he also performed with. After graduation
  from high school, Davis furthered his study of music at UCLA, majoring in music
  theory and composition, playing trumpet in college jazz ensembles and orchestras.
  Although Davis'' primary interest had been jazz and rock, he found himself enamored
  with the avant-garde side of modern music. UCLA introduced Davis to a new world
  of musical possibilities, and before long he''d begun to plan his future as a composer
  with an eye toward film music.
