The genius has made his mark with such unforgettable melodies as the pieces featured in Jaws, Star Wars, E.T. or\u00a0Schindler&#8217;s List.<\/p>\n<p>John Towner Williams started out in 1955 when he began his studies at the Juilliard School of Music. \u00a0He moved to Los Angeles to work with\u00a0Henry Mancini, composing for some of the most popular television series of the 1960s. In 1968, he received his first Oscar nomination. (Last year he was nominated for the prestigious award for the 50th time!)<\/p>\n<p>His scores became the hallmarks of such historical movie characters as Indiana Jones, E.T., Darth Vader and many more!
