Iranian and German parents gave birth to Djawadi in Germany. He relocated to Los Angeles after earning a degree in film score and guitar performance, and quickly started working on movies like Iron Man and Warcraft, which both received Grammy nominations.
His television work includes Person of Interest, Westworld, and Game of Thrones in addition to the video game Clash of the Titans and Person of Interest. The biggest notoriety has come from his work on Game of Thrones, which began in 2011. Djawadi described the 10-minute piano sequence in the 2016 season finale in an interview with Vanity Fair:
The force and fading of that sound are both wholly original. It cannot be accomplished using anything else. One viewer said on the music, “The real winner of those first 15 minutes is the music,” because it was so outstanding. Because of the musical direction, this episode is among the best Game of Thrones has ever produced.
