The SoundtrackNet website is reporting that composer Shirley Walker has passed away at the age of 61 due to a brain aneurysm. Walker provided the music for Batman the Animated Series, Superman the Animated Series, The Zeta Project, the HBO Spawn series, and Batman Beyond. She also was a composer for the live-action Flash series, and was working on the soundtrack for the direct-to-video animated adaptation of DC: The New Frontier.

She was an excellent composer and helped define the modern day Batman theme. That's really too bad. There sure have been a lot of Batman related deaths the past few years.

Sad, she was really pretty young. A very talented artist who will be missed.
