For nearly 40 years composer David Newman has written scores that span all parts of The Walt Disney Company, including Tim Burton short film Frankenweenie in 1984, 1989’s Cranium Command show at Epcot, The Mighty Ducks in 1992, 102 Dalmatians in 2000, and most recently arranging 2021’s West Side Story score. David Newman is an Academy Award-nominated composer whose catalogue of contributions is truly vast, particularly on the family film front, from humongous hits like Ice Age and Scooby-Doo to The Flintstones and Anastasia, for which he obtained the Oscar nom. Host Brett Nachman brings David Newman on to Notably Disney to chart his Disney work, career highlights, and famous family.
