| Introduction | "Never Give Up on a Dream" In 1977 I sat in a darkened theater waiting to watch Star Wars. As soon as the main title came on screen with John William's music, I knew I wanted to write music like that. 47 years later, I am back in school to pursue my dream of writing music for motion pictures. |
