#Fact
1He composed the main theme and music for the first season episodes of the original Outer Limits television series. However, by the end of the first season, tension, mainly due to artistic differences and financial issues, had developed between ABC network executives and the team of series creator Leslie Stevens and producer/writer Joseph Stefano. After ABC moved the show to a less favorable time slot for its second season, Stefano left the series. Frontiere, who had doubled as executive producer and was a confidante of Stefano and Stevens, saw his theme replaced for the second and final season by one composed by Harry Lubin, who had been the composer for another ABC series, the then recently-canceled One Step Beyond.
2He was the seventh husband of the late former owner of the Los Angeles Rams, Georgia Frontiere. In December 1986, he was sentenced to one year and a day in federal prison for willfully filing a false income tax return and lying to IRS investigators to cover up his role in scalping Rams tickets to the 1980 Super Bowl game. He was also fined the maximum amount of $15,000 after the judge felt Frontiere had repeatedly lied in court when asked to explain his actions. He was released in September 1987 and the next year his wife filed for divorce.
3Second husband of Cicely Evans.
4In 1959, Frontiere was commissioned by American International Pictures to write a pop song for the end title of their dubbed Italian epic, Sheba and the Gladiator (1959) (aka "Sign of the Gladiator"). The end credits give the song as "Xenobia", composed by Dominic Frontiere, lyrics by Milton Raskin, sung by Bill Lee. ("Xenobia" was the lead part played by Anita Ekberg). AIP's record division, American International Records, promoted the film's release with a 7-inch single comprising of "Xenobia" and "Slave Dance" (AIR 501). However, Frontiere seems to have disowned the assignment. Although he has registered 1120 titles at BMI, "Xenobia" isn't one of them.
5Was head of Paramount's music department during the 1970s.
6Is distant cousins with the Fonte brothers Dominic Fonte (1912-2001) and Albert Fonte (1915-2004)
7Composed the infamous 1969 Paramount TV jingle that was nicknamed "Closet Killer," which was used from the fall of 1969 until the fall of 1970.
