Elmer Bernstein [SEP] Politics
Along with many in Hollywood, Bernstein faced censure during the McCarthy era of the early 1950s. Bernstein was called by the House Un-American Activities Committee when it was discovered that he had written some music reviews for a Communist newspaper. After he refused to name names, pointing out that he had never attended a Communist Party meeting, he found himself composing music for movies such as "Robot Monster" and "Cat-Women of the Moon", a step down from his earlier "Sudden Fear" and "Saturday's Hero".
