American film and television composer who scored the Deep Space Nine episodes The Nagus and Progress and the Next Generation episode The Pegasus early in his career.
John Debney, later an Oscar-nominated film composer, wrote music for Star Trek as a guest composer in the early 1990s, outside the regular rotation of Dennis McCarthy and Jay Chattaway.
For the first season of Deep Space Nine he scored The Nagus, the comedy that introduced Grand Nagus Zek, and Progress, in which Kira must remove an old farmer from a Bajoran moon.
He returned for the seventh-season Next Generation episode The Pegasus, about Riker's former captain and an illegal cloaking device.
