MILWAUKEE — A Wisconsin high school graduate won the grand prize at the 80th Annual Golden Globe Awards on Tuesday night.
Musician and composer Justin Hurwitz won four Golden Globe Awards for Best Original Score for “Babylon,” directed by Damien Chazelle and starring Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie. This win continues his impeccable track record of winning all his previous nominations as well.
Hurwitz, 37, attended Nicollette High School in Glendale, Wisconsin. After she graduated in 2003, she enrolled at Harvard University.
“[…] I had music classes all through middle school and high school,” Hurwitz said at the Golden Globes post-show press conference. “And that was a big part of why I was doing music.”
Hurwitz was born in California in 1985 and moved to Wisconsin in 1998, according to Rotten Tomatoes.
He faced Carter Burwell in “Inisherin’s Banshees”, Alexandre Desplat in “Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio”, Hildur Guznadottir in “Woman Talking” and John Williams in “Favermans”.
The musician also won Best Original Score for “La La Land” and “First Man” directed by Chazelle, and Best Original Song for “La La Land”. He has also won two Academy Awards for his work on ‘La La Land’.
