Jerry Fielding (born Joshua Itzhak Feldman; June 17, 1922 – February 17, 1980)[5] was an American jazz musician, arranger, band leader, and film composer who emerged in the 1960s after a decade on the blacklist,[citation needed] to create boldly diverse and evocative Oscar-nominated scores, primarily for gritty, often brutally savage, films in western and crime action genres, including the Sam Peckinpah movies The Wild Bunch (1969) and Straw Dogs (1971).
