Smallville and Blue Bloods composer Mark Snow dies at 78: 15-time Emmy nominee wrote iconic X-Files theme
Mark Snow, the composer known for his work on numerous hit television shows, has died at age 78.
The long-running conspiracy-tinged science fiction thriller series starred Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny as FBI agents tasked with examining paranormal cases that other members of the bureau had tried to sweep under the rug. It was remixed and released as a single in 1996, which became a surprise chart success in the UK, Ireland, Scotland, France, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland, Denmark, the Netherlands, Finland, Hungary and even Australia. After getting his start in the '70s scoring for shows including Starsky & Hutch, Vega$ and The Love Boat, he became even more prolific in the '80s with his work on Dynasty, Cagney & Lacey, T.J. Hooker and Pee-wee's Playhouse.
