Steve McQueen, CBE

Director

Steve McQueen is one of the most influential auteur directors working in the UK at present. As a video artist he won the Turner Prize in 1999, and his first feature film, Hunger, won him a BAFTA as Most Promising Newcomer. He was also the first British director to win the Camera d’Or at Cannes. Also credited with Shame, the British film-maker was named Best Director by the New York Film Critics’ Circle for his most recent hard-hitting movie, 12 Years a Slave in December 2013. In 2011, McQueen was appointed Commander of the British Empire for his services to the visual arts. Currently, McQueen is working on a drama for the BBC, and he is reported to be planning a biopic about black actor, singer and activist Paul Robeson.
