About Me

If you have watched television or a film, you have probably heard music composed by Michael Whalen.

Whalen’s Emmy-awarding music can be heard on over 350 television and film projects, as well as thousands of national advertisements. His best-known works include the theme for ABC’s Good Morning America, music for the feature film What The Bleep Do We Know? plus dozens of scores for HBO (How Do You Spell G-D), National Geographic (Surviving West Point), Discovery (The Future Is Wild), PBS (The American Experience,), Disney, and many other networks. Whalen’s most recent project was the completion of the score to the landmark 4-hour series Slavery And The Making Of America, as well as the special Violent Hawaii, both airing on PBS in February 2005.
