Ellen Taaffe Zwilich (born April 30, 1939, in Miami, Florida) is an American composer, the first female composer to win the Pulitzer Prize for Music. Her early works are marked by atonal exploration, but by the late 1980s she had matured to a post-modernist, neo-romantic style. She has been called "one of America’s most frequently played and genuinely popular living composers." Zwilich began her studies as a violinist, earning a B.M. from Florida State University in 1960. <a href="https://www.l
