Composer and conductor John Cacavas (born 13 August 1930 in Aberdeen, South Dakota) is probably best known for his television scores, notably "Kojak", for which he was the chief composer. The well known Kojak theme however is not by Cacavas, rather the work of Billy Goldenberg, who scored the early episodes. His television credits also include "Hawaii Five-O", "The Bionic Woman", "Mrs. Columbo", and "Buck Rogers in the 25th Century". Wikipedia
