Sound recordist Dan Bloomberg’s first Hollywood credit was in 1934, his last his Oscar-nominated work on John Ford’s “The Quiet Man” 18 years later. In the intervening time, he worked on several films in the Dick Tracy and Zorro series.
Although his work was mainly confined to B pictures, Bloomberg did enjoy the distinction of winning 5 technical awards from the Academy, as well as six Academy Award nominations. He also won an Honorary Award in 1945 for designing and building a musical scoring auditorium with state of the art acoustics.
