When The Academy Offered up new Members, I was looking at the members of the Music Branch and there is a name on there that made me scratch me head! Dave Grusin. 81 year old Dave Grusin, who has been nominated and Won an Oscar way back in 1988, The Milagro Beanfield War. Who forget Dave's great work on Mark Rydell's On Golden Pond. Or OUR, Fan Favorite...The Goonies!!!
...and There is only two ways becoming an Academy Member... Invited, and Sponsor. What? No one either invited, or sponsored Dave Grusin? Come on...until 2015?
My Question is..Why now..I truly thought Dave Grusin was already an Oscar Member..SINCE he won one. Doesn't it NOT make sense at all?
Here is the list of new invited members...2015
Music
Tyler Bates – “John Wick,” “Guardians of the Galaxy”
Alex Gibson – “Interstellar,” “The Dark Knight”
Jonny Greenwood – “Inherent Vice,” “The Master”
Dave Grusin – “Skating to New York,” “The Firm”

Lisa Jaime – “Annie,” “Rock of Ages”
Jóhann Jóhannsson – “The Theory of Everything,” “Prisoners”
Laura Karpman – “States of Grace,” “Black Nativity”
Christopher Lennertz – “The Wedding Ringer,” “Horrible Bosses”
Lonnie Lynn – “Selma,” “Freedom Writers”
Chris McGeary – “Jersey Boys,” “RoboCop”
Sergio Mendes – “Rio 2,” “Rio”

Grusin has been a member, but his membership lapsed, so I guess he's paid now and he's back in. I thought the same thing.

Theodore Shapiro and not Erica Weis composed Spy?
Erica Weis is a music editor. Probably most of the names on that list who aren't instantly familiar as composers -- or songwriters like Sergio Mendes, Lonnie Lynn [Common] and John Stephens [John Legend] -- are music editors.
