Born in Seattle in 1940, Wester began his love affair with audio technology as an amateur ham-radio operator at age 13. Later receiving his bachelor's degree from Cal State L.A. and his master's degree from U.C.L.A., the creative soundman worked prominently in television commercials before turning to feature work in the early '70s. On November 1, 2002, Keith Wester died of cancer in Studio City, CA. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
