Biografie
Peter James is one of Australia's most celebrated cinematographers, with an international career spanning more than three decades.
During his accomplished career, James has remained director Bruce Beresford's key cinematographer, collaborating with him on 11 projects, beginning with the Australian filmmaker's 1989 Oscar®-winning Best Picture "Driving Miss Daisy." In the more than two decades since, James has guided the camera work on Beresford's "Black Robe," winning Canada's Genie Award, "Mister Johnson," "Last Dance," "Double Jeopardy," "Bride of the Wind," "Rich in Love," "Silent Fall," "Paradise Road," "Mao's Last Dancer" and the HBO western "And Starring Pancho Villa As Himself," for which he earned an Emmy Award nomination.
Among other honors for his work, James has received the Milli Award from the Australian Cinematographers Society (ACS) four times: for "Willi Willi," in 1972; "Caddie," in 1977; "Black Robe," in 1992; and 1993's "Alive." He has also won three Australian Film Institute (AFI) awards for his cinematography, on "Black Robe," "Rebel" and "The Right Hand Man."
The Sydney native, who began studying his craft as a teenage intern at Supreme Sound Studios, also directed the photography on the comedy hits "Meet the Parents," "27 Dresses," "Cheaper By the Dozen 2" and "The Pacifier," as well as Richard Linklater's "The Newton Boys," "My Life" and "The Thing Called Love." His early film credits, in his native Australia, include "Avengers of the Reef," "The Irishman," "The Killing of Angel Street," "Palace of Dreams" and "Echoes of Paradise."
