He was a prodigy at arrangement and orchestration who first had an arrangement played by a symphony orchestra when he was 11.
He studied with Castelnuovo-Tedesco.
He filled in for an ill radio-show conductor and mightily impressed the director, an actor named Ronald Reagan. That led to much Hollywood work.
He worked on projects for Henry Mancini and Charlie Chapin, and worked on four Louis Armstrong albums including Porgy & Bess.
He did lots of work for film and television before abandoning his career to work for world peace, in the context of the Baha'i faith.
John Atkinson relied upon Garcia's arrangement and orchestration handbook when he was a working musician.
