KEOKUK, IOWA -- If you're into video games, chances are you've heard the work of a former Keokuk High School graduate.

According to the Keokuk Daily Gate City, 36 year-old Jeremy Soule is a composer of music in video games like "Total Annihilation," and "Dungeons Siege"

Now his latest work in a game called "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" is getting him big time attention.

He was given the Top Video Game Award during the 27th annual awards ceremony for The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.

That game was the best-selling video game of 2011.
