Sol Kaplan (April 19, 1919 – November 14, 1990) was a prolific film and television music composer. Born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Kaplan worked as a successful concert pianist, including performing at Carnegie Hall in 1941. That same year, Kaplan composed his first film score. He went on to write music for dozens of films including the 1953 films ''Titanic'' and ''Niagara''. His film career was disrupted during the 1950s when he was blacklisted after being uncooperative in testimony before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. For ''Star Trek'', Kaplan scored two episodes, "The Enemy Within" and "The Doomsday Machine". Jeff Bond notes, "Although he wrote only two scores for the series, New York composer Sol Kaplan's music was tracked endlessly throughout the show's first two seasons." Kaplan was married to the actress Frances Heflin (sister of actor Van Heflin). Their son is the film director Jonathan Kaplan; they also had two daughters, Nora Heflin and Mady Kaplan Ahern. Sol Kaplan died of lung cancer in 1990. ==Selected filmography== * ''The Tell-Tale Heart'' (1941) * ''Tales of Manhattan'' (1942) * ''Hollow Triumph'' (1948) * ''Port of New York'' (1949) * ''Trapped'' (1949) * ''The Secret of Convict Lake'' (1951) * ''I'd Climb the Highest Mountain'' (1951) * ''Diplomatic Courier'' (1952) * ''Kangaroo'' (1952) * ''Destination Gobi'' (1953) * ''Treasure of the Golden Condor'' (1953) * ''Niagara'' (1953) * ''Titanic'' (1953) * ''Salt of the Earth'' (1954) * ''The Burglar'' (1957) * ''Happy Anniversary'' (1959) * ''Girl of the Night'' (1960) * ''The Victors'' (1963) * ''The Young Lovers'' (1964) * ''The Spy Who Came in from the Cold'' (1965) * ''Judith'' (1966) * ''Living Free'' (1972) * ''Lies My Father Told Me'' (1975) * ''Over the Edge'' (1979) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sol Kaplan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
