By Sarah Finegold • September 9, 2025

Can you say *chef's kiss*? Congratulations to our ASCAP family whose incredible works won big at the 2025 Creative Arts Emmys! Whether it's dining with a side of philanthropy, murder and intrigue at a luxury resort or iconic, dastardly DC villains, ASCAP creators scored them all and took home the trophies for it!

Composer David Bertok earned his first Emmy, winning Outstanding Music Composition For A Documentary Series Or Special for Chef's Table José Andrés. Composer Mick Giacchino was also a first time winner and took home the Emmy for Outstanding Music Composition For A Limited Or Anthology Series, Movie Or Special for The Penguin. Finally, returning winner Cristobal Tapia de Veer won his third consecutive Emmy for his work on The White Lotus, winning Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music.

Cheers to these talented creators on their Emmy Awards, as well as every one of our nominees (a collection of whom are pictured below at our Emmy nominees brunch celebrating with ASCAP staff). You can peruse all the winners from the Creative Arts Emmys at www.emmys.com/awards/nominees-winners.
