Biography
from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia:

One of the most prolific composers in Hollywood, Tiomkin was also one of the most respected, and one of the fewalong with Max Steiner and Franz Waxman-who brought a level of Continental sophistication to American film music. Educated at the St. Petersburg Conservatory, Tiomkin was a successful pianist and conductor in his homeland, and is generally credited for bringing the music of George Gershwin to European audiences. In 1925 he emigrated to the U.S., and never looked back, becoming an American citizen in 1937. By then, he was already a flourishing screen composer, having created memorable music for Mad Love (1935) and Frank Capra's Lost Horizon (1937). The latter won him the first of a remarkable 23 Oscar nominations. He and Capra had a falling-out over the director's displeasure with Tiomkin's dark, brooding score for It's a Wonderful Life (1946); the complete, original work wasn't heard until a restoration and recording was made in the late 1980s. Highlights from Tiomkin's work include his Oscarwinning scores for High Noon (1952, which also won him a Best Song Oscar for "Do Not Forsake Me, Oh My Darlin'"); The High and the Mighty (1954), and The Old Man and the Sea (1958). The great success of the song from High Noon caused producers to hire Tiomkin and lyricist Ned Washington, hoping they could work the same magic on their pictures. Some of the songs were quite successful, like the theme from The High and the Mighty others never caught on. Still, Tiomkin's résumé is formidable, including Oscar nominations for Lost Horizon (1937), Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939), The Corsican Brothers (1941), The Moon and Sixpence (1942), The Bridge of San Luis Rey (1944), Champion (1949), Giant (1956), the song "Thee I Love" from Friendly Persuasion (1956), the title song from Wild Is the Wind (1957), the song "Strange Are the Ways of Love" from The Young Land (1959), The Alamo (1960) and the song "The Green Leaves of Summer" from the same film, The Guns of Navarone (1961), the title song from Town Without Pity (1961), 55 Days at Peking (1963), the song "So Little Time," from The Fall of the Roman Empire (1964), and best adaptation of Tchaikovsky (1971, which he also produced). He published his autobiography, "Please Don't Hate Me," in 1959.
