Read Full BioHans Florian Zimmer (born 12 September 1957) is a German film score composer and record producer. Since the 1980s, he has composed music for over 150 films. His works include The Lion King, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Original Score in 1995, the Pirates of the Caribbean series, The Thin Red Line, Gladiator, The Last Samurai, and The Dark Knight Trilogy.
Zimmer spent the early part of his career in the United Kingdom before moving to the United States. He is the head of the film music division at DreamWorks studios and works with other composers through the company that he founded, Remote Control Productions, formerly known as Media Ventures. His studio in Santa Monica, California has an extensive range of computer equipment and keyboards, allowing demo versions of film scores to be created quickly.
Zimmer's works are notable for integrating electronic music sounds with traditional orchestral arrangements. He has received four Grammy Awards, three Classical BRIT Awards, two Golden Globes, and an Academy Award. He was also named on the list of Top 100 Living Geniuses, published by The Daily Telegraph.
Zimmer was born in Frankfurt am Main, Germany on 12th September 1957, and moved to London as a teenager. While he lived in London, Zimmer wrote advertising jingles for Air-Edel Associates. Zimmer began his musical career playing keyboards and synthesisers. In 1980 he worked with The Buggles, a New Wave band formed in 1977 with Trevor Horn, Geoff Downes, and Bruce Woolley, appearing briefly in the video for "Video Killed the Radio Star" (1979).
In the 1980s, Zimmer worked with film composer Stanley Myers, a prolific film composer who composed scores for over sixty films. Zimmer and Myers co-founded the London-based Lillie Yard recording studio. Together, Myers and Zimmer worked on fusing the traditional orchestral sound with state-of-the-art electronics. Some of their first movies with this new sound include "Moonlighting" (1982), "Success is the Best Revenge" (1984), "Insignificance" (1985), and "My Beautiful Launderette" (1985). In 1986, Zimmer joined David Byrne and Ryuichi Sakamoto on their Oscar-winning score for "The Last Emperor" (1988).
Soon afterwards, Zimmer began working on his own solo projects. During his solo career years, Zimmer experimented and combined the use of old and new musical technologies. His first solo score was for Chris Menges’s film "A World Apart" (1988). However, the turning point in his career came later that year when he was asked to compose a score for Barry Levinson’s film "Rain Man" (1988). In the score, Zimmer uses synthesizers mixed with steel drums. The score was nominated for an Academy Award in 1989. A year later Zimmer was asked to compose a score for Bruce Beresford's "Driving Miss Daisy" (1989), which won a Grammy Award 1991.
In 1994, Zimmer won his biggest commercial hit for Disney’s "The Lion King" (1994). He wanted to go to South Africa himself to record the soundtrack, but couldn't because he had a police record there for making subversive films. "The Lion King" soundtrack won numerous awards, including an Oscar, a Golden Globe, and two Grammys. It was then adapted for the Broadway musical version, which won the Tony for Best Musical in 1998.
Since the success of "The Lion King", Zimmer has written numerous film scores. His hundredth composition was for "The Last Samurai" (2003), for which he won both a Golden Globe and a Broadcast Film Critics nomination in 2004. After composing over a hundred film scores, Zimmer finally performed live for the first time in concert with a hundred-piece orchestra and a hundred-person choir at the twenty-seventh Annual Flanders International Film Festival.
He has received numerous honours and awards, including: Prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award in Film Composition from the National Board of Review, Frederick Loewe Award in 2003 at the Palm Springs International Film Festival, ASCAP’s Henry Mancini Award for Lifetime Achievement, and BMI's prestigious Richard Kirk Award for lifetime achievement in 1996. Today, Zimmer is considered to be the father of integrating the electronic musical world with traditional orchestral arrangements.
Zimmer's first wife was a model, Vicki Carolin, with whom he has a daughter, model Zoe Zimmer. Zimmer lives in Los Angeles with his second wife Suzanne Zimmer with whom he has an additional three children.

@Chef Boi Arby nah he was the waiter/owner.
The issue was two fold.
First those kind of bars are for locals, you can get introduced and welcomed by other people.
You can't just go in like that it's tradition.
He us very obviously white so not a local and even if he was, everyone in the bar would've known him, but they didn't so he wasn't a regular either.
So it was kind of a 'who are and what the hell are you doing here ??' moment.
Second he was Sus af. It looked like (very obviously) he was being pursued and trying to hide, not so casually and smoothly as he seemed to think btw lol.
The owner didn't know by whom he was pursued but probably thought it was a local gang.
Basically this is how he makes a living, he didn't want any trouble or get any sort of retaliation on his café.
I'm not from his country but he was speaking Swahili, it's one of the most spoken language on the continent.
So I understood mostly what he said.
'You can't just sit here, you have to leave. Nonono it's not possible !'
(In response to him asking for coffee) you need to leave !'
(These 2 phases multiple times)
Then towards other customers he said 'what is this guy doing ??
He's starting trouble. He going to bring me trouble. This white guy/look at this white guy ! Eh this white is crazy ! (That was pretty funny) he's is not listening/understanding. You need to go !'
And then predictably they caught up to him and he trashed the place a bit.
The owner was probably scared or even closed for a few days and left to 'see family' in an other town.
That what you do, to have an excuse if you wanna dodge the henchmen who will come ask questions later about the guy who apparently was familiar enough to sit/get introduced at your local bar.
They don't ask very nicely and might not believe he didn't know him.
Ofc he didn't know it wasn't a gang after Cobb.

@Chef Boi Arby I think that was a waiter. Some owners are also waiters and seeing as no one else had a tray, I think he had the power to kick Cobb out. A customer couldn't
Gemma Pattenden
Well he isn’t dreaming now

Cobb was occupying the guy's seat. He just went to take his cafe from counter while cobb took his seat.
