I was thinking that there is a strange lack of Women composers and conductors. Tons of women virtuoso musicians, and quite a few song writers. But movie scoring??
I googled "female classical composer" and was blown away at how many there are. A lot.
BUT other than the first two being married to male classical composers everybody has heard of in modern times, you'll probably never learn anything about any of the rest of them in music class at school. Or anywhere else unless you look specifically for them.
