Although Jeff Beal may not be a household name, you’ve likely heard his work—he’s the composer behind the scores for films and TV shows such as House of Cards, Pollock, Carnivàle, Rome, and Monk. The five-time Emmy-winning composer and instrumentalist is selling his Tuscan-style home in Agoura Hills, Los Angeles, for just over $4 million, which is about $2 million more than he and his wife Joan paid for it in 2010.
