From Wikipedia

Douglas G. Shearer (November 17, 1899 - January 5, 1971) was

a Canadian American pioneer sound designer and recording director who played a

key role in the advancement of sound technology for motion pictures.

Shearer was born in Montreal, Quebec to a prominent

upper-class family, but his family fell on hard times after his father's

business failed, which ultimately led to his parents' separation. Douglas

remained with his father in Montreal while his two younger sisters, MGM star

Norma Shearer and Athole, moved to New York City with their mother.

Unable to afford university, Douglas Shearer left school,

working at a variety of jobs. After marrying Marion B Tilden in Montreal, on

Sept 9, 1922*, he visited his sisters, who by then had relocated to Hollywood,

California in the early 1920s. He decided to remain there, and found a job at

MGM Studios, (his sister Norma was under contract at MGM) where he began to

pursue an interest in the creation of sound in film. This interest lead to a

forty-year association with the film business, in which he was a significant

innovator in the development and perfecting of sound technology in motion

pictures. One of his many contributions included the development of a

sophisticated recording system that eliminated unwanted background noise during

sound recording. Over his long career, Douglas Shearer was nominated for an

Academy Award a total of twenty-one times, winning seven times for Sound and

Special Effects. He is credited as Recording Director at MGM on many films

between 1930 to 1953. In 1955, he was appointed MGM's director of technical

research and by the time he retired in 1968 he had won an additional seven

Scientific or Technical Academy Awards.

Shearer died in Culver City, California in 1971.
