Biography
Theodore "Ted" Nichols (born October 2, 1928) is a composer conductor, arranger, educator, minister of music.
While Nichols served at the Church of The Open Door, he became acquainted with the Los Angeles artistic community and the large musical productions at the church encouraged a member of his choir, an animator at Hanna-Barbera Productions to introduce Nichols to Bill Hanna. That led to a contract as musical director from 1963 to 1972 for Hanna-Barbera. He wrote score for Jonny Quest (TV series), and musical cues and arrangements for The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!, Josie and the Pussycats (TV series), Shazzan, Birdman and the Galaxy Trio, The New Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Wacky Races, and the full length feature The Man Called Flintstone. During this time Nichols wrote film scores for World Wide Pictures.
