Justin D. Wright
Justin David Wright was raised in Richmond, Virginia. At age 12, he followed in the footsteps of his older brother and began playing trumpet with the hope of eventually succeeding him as musical champion of the household. Wright began composing at age 15, where he had his compositional world-premiere in a 7-11 gas station with a stirring rendition of Hark! The Herald Angels Sing for brass. Since then, he has earned the Bachelor of Music degree in composition from the University of Maryland, having received The Directors Scholarship for Music, and a Master of Arts in film and multimedia composition from New York University, where he studied closely with celebrated film composer Ira Newborn. Wright is currently a composer, writer, and producer based in Brooklyn, New York, collectively working on various concert commissions, film collaborations, and countless labors of love with dancers, writers, performers, and friends. Justin works in music production for Ogilvy and Mather and nurtures the continual growth of his own film production company Robotic Raptor Studios.
