Biography

Walter Newman is the Supervising Sound Editor at Warner Bros. Pictures. He’s won five Emmy Awards as a supervising sound editor, four for ER (including three consecutively, 1998-2000) and one for Third Watch. He’s been nominated a total of 18 times, all but once as a supervising sound editor (the exception: effects mixer for ER), most recently for AMC’s The Walking Dead in 2011. A graduate of Hollywood High and Cal State Northridge, Newman started working in the Warner Bros. post-production sound department in 1979, when the lot was known as The Burbank Studios, and has been there ever since, moving up the sonic career ladder.
