Michael Trent Reznor (born May 17, 1965) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, producer, actor, leader of industrial rock band Nine Inch Nails, and member of How to Destroy Angels alongside his wife, Mariqueen Maandig, and Atticus Ross. He was previously associated with bands Option 30, Exotic Birds, and Tapeworm, among others. Reznor left Interscope Records in 2007, and is now an independent musician. Reznor began creating music early in his life, and cites his Western Pennsylvania childhood as an early influence. After being involved with a number of synthesizer-based bands in the mid-80s, Reznor gained employment at Right Track Studios and began creating his own music during the studio's closing hours under the moniker Nine Inch Nails. Reznor's first release as Nine Inch Nails, Pretty Hate Machine (1989), was a commercial and critical success, and he has since released seven major studio releases. Outside of Reznor's chief project Nine Inch Nails, he has contributed to many other artists' albums, including Marilyn Manson and Saul Williams. In 1997, Reznor appeared in Time magazine's list of the year's most influential people, and Spin magazine described him as "the most vital artist in music." Reznor, in collaboration with Atticus Ross, composed the score for The Social Network, a 2010 theatrical film about the founding of Facebook. The duo won the 2010 Golden Globe for Best Original Score and the Academy Award for Best Original Score for their collaboration. The soundtrack album was released by The Null Corporation, Reznor's own independent record label. Earlier this year, Reznor announced that the pair would once again be collaborating with David Fincher by composing the score to the US film adaptation of the novel The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, set for release in late 2011.

for Composer in The Question: The Deaths of Vic Sage
Suggested by dc_black_label

Vic Sage is the Question—the faceless hero of the hopelessly corrupt Hub City. He knows what is right and what is wrong. He knows the difference between good and evil. And that righteous moral certainty fuels his single-minded quest to bring justice and order to Hub City's chaotic streets. But deep beneath those streets lies a secret—a revelation that will turn Vic Sage's clear-cut view of the world inside out. Because this isn't the first lifetime in which the Question has waged his war against evil. Across countless lives, from the Wild West to World War II, he has fought against injustice, only to die in the attempt—and be reborn, over and over again. Now he's being forced to relive those past lives—and repeat those old fights—in order to find his way home once more. But even if he succeeds, will these tragic reincarnations continue forever? Or will this final battle break the vicious cycle once and for all?
