 Elmer Bernstein Biography at Hollywood.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
An extremely prolific composer of more than 100 film scores, Elmer Bernstein was a child prodigy, performing professionally as a dancer and actor and winning several prizes for his painting before gravitating by his own choice to music.
By the time he left the armed services, he had composed the scores for more than 80 radio shows for the Armed Forces Radio Network but returned to the concert stage as a civilian until given the opportunity to write the scores for two programs for United Nations Radio in 1949.
His reputation soared as he proved himself a man for all genres with a rousing Western score for "The Magnificent Seven" (1960), yet when film tastes changed in the late 60s, he recognized his over-arranged scores as anachronistic and shifted gears, redefining soundtrack comedy in movies like "National Lampoon's Animal House" (1978) and "Ghostbusters" (1984).

His critically acclaimed, Golden Globe nominated score for Glory was a milestone achievement, and perhaps the best score of the year.
His score to Driving Miss Daisy is a very good period piece --showing Zimmer's talent for diversity-- although it was not nominated for any awards (that was strange since the film won the Oscar for best film of the year).
Understandably, this score is forgotten simply because the film was such a tragic, predictable failure (recall --this is the one where the gang searches for God and finds an angry old fart and a poorly constructed miniature of a Klingon Bird of Prey).
