Tell me a bio of Max Steiner.
Max Steiner (February 10, 1888 – December 28, 1971) was an Austrian-born American composer, conductor, and arranger, who is best known for his work in film scoring. He is considered one of the pioneers of film music and is often referred to as the "Dean of Film Scorers."

Steiner was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria-Hungary (now in Austria), and studied music at the Vienna Conservatory. He began his career as a pianist and conductor in theaters and cabarets in Vienna and Berlin. In 1914, he moved to the United States and worked as a pianist and arranger for various dance bands and orchestras.

Steiner's film scoring career began in 1933 when he composed the music for the film "King Kong." This score is considered a groundbreaking achievement in film music and established Steiner as a leading film composer. He went on to compose music for over 200 films, including "Gone with the Wind," "Casablanca," "Now, Voyager," "An American in Paris," and "2001: A Space Odyssey."

Steiner's film scores were known for their innovative use of orchestration, melody, and rhythm to enhance the emotional impact of the films. He was also one of the first composers to use electronic sounds in film music, using theremins and other electronic instruments in his scores for "The Day the Earth Stood Still" and "On the Beach."

Steiner won two Academy Awards for Best Original Score, for "Gone with the Wind" in 1939 and "An Affair to Remember" in 1957. He was also nominated for 14 other Academy Awards. In 1962, he received a special Academy Award for his lifetime achievement in film music.

Steiner continued to compose and conduct film music until his death in 1971. He left behind a legacy of over 300 film scores, many of which are considered classics of film music. His influence on the development of film music is immeasurable, and he is still regarded as one of the greatest film composers of all time.
