His parents were Russian immigrants that came to America. George grew up in Brooklyn, but moved to Hollywood and lived there for 5 years or so. He died in 1937 when he was only 38 of a brain tumor, but is remembered for creating a new style of music for America in a time when only European composers were taken seriously. But George combined several existing styles from around the world to create his melting pot of American music. He's an amazing guy!
