Dave Filoni biography
Dave Filoni grew up in Mount Lebanon, Pennsylvania, a suburb of Pittsburgh. He graduated from Mount Lebanon High School in 1992 and graduated from Edinboro University of Pennsylvania in 1996. According to composer Kevin Kiner (who did most of the music for The Clone Wars and Rebels), Filoni’s father was a fan of opera and classical music; as such, he inherited an appreciation for classical music and assisted in the collaborative process, with Kiner crediting Filoni for suggesting the organ in Grand Admiral Thrawn’s theme from Rebels. Filoni went on to say that his grandfather and uncle were also pilots, the latter specializing in aircraft restoration. He recognized this as a major influence on the Star Wars Resistance idea.
