IMDb profile

Herbert D. Woods (July 28, 1933 — November 9, 2019) was an American music editor for both the Original Series and its sequel series Galactica 1980, working across the franchise's entire original run at Universal Television.

Career

Woods began his television work in the mid-1970s at Universal, editing music for a single 1976 episode of The Six Million Dollar Man. That same year he moved onto the spin-off The Bionic Woman, where he served as music editor on 44 episodes across the show's 1976 to 1978 run. In 1977 he was music editor on the television movies Charlie Cobb: Nice Night for a Hanging, the The Incredible Hulk pilot film, and its follow-up The Return of the Incredible Hulk.

Woods joined Battlestar Galactica for its 1978 debut, editing music for both the theatrically released pilot film and the subsequent ABC series, on which he worked across its only season. His work on the series carried over onto the accompanying soundtrack releases. The liner notes to The Stu Phillips Anthology — Battlestar Galactica, a four-disc set collecting Stu Phillips' scores, credit Woods as music editor on the collection.

In 1978 Woods also cut music for four episodes of The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, before moving to Buck Rogers in the 25th Century the following year, where he was music editor on 19 episodes spanning the 1979–1980 seasons.

When ABC revived the franchise as Galactica 1980 in 1980, Woods returned as music editor, credited on-screen as "Herbert Woods." That same year he also edited music for the Incredible Hulk television series episode "Prometheus: Part I."

Woods' final credited work came nearly a decade later, on the 1989 television movie The Ryan White Story, where he was billed as "Herb Woods."

Personal life

Woods was born Herbert Dee Woods on July 28, 1933, in Ogden, Utah, to Herbert Woods and Ava Blanch Welch Woods. The family were recorded as members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in a 1935 church census taken in the Ogden Utah Stake, when Woods was two years old. The 1940 United States Census lists him, then age six, living with his parents and his 17-year-old sister Alice in Ogden, Weber County, Utah; his father, also named Herbert Woods, is recorded as head of household at age 45.

Per his obituary, Woods earned a Bachelor's degree and worked as a sound editor in the motion picture industry, though his screen credits specifically list him as a music editor. He died on November 9, 2019, in Los Angeles, California, at the age of 86, and was survived by Steve and Melanie Edwards. A graveside service was held on November 19, 2019, at Ogden City Cemetery.
