Edward Mirzoeff CVO, CBE (born 11 April 1936) is a prominent British television producer and documentary filmmaker. ==Early life== Mirzoeff was educated at Hasmonean Grammar School, a former state grammar school, now known as Hasmonean High School, a co-educational state comprehensive school for Jewish pupils in Hendon in north west London. He won an Open Scholarship in Modern History to The Queen's College at the University of Oxford, in 1953, obtaining a BA (Oxon) in 1956, MA (Oxon) in 1960. ==Film work== Mirzoeff's wide-ranging studies of British institutions for the BBC include the Royal Green Jackets (a former regiment of the British Army), New Scotland Yard, the National Trust, Westminster School, the Royal Opera House and the Ritz Hotel. Mirzoeff was given unprecedented access and attracted record-breaking audiences for his 1992 portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, ''Elizabeth R'', marking her 40th anniversary on the throne. Subsequently he was appointed a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order. Mirzoeff also made a series of enduring films with the late Poet Laureate Sir John Betjeman (notably ''Metro-land'', 1973, ''A Passion for Churches'', 1974, and "The Queen's Realm - A Prospect of England",1977) and directed many other leading presenters, including James Cameron, Ludovic Kennedy and Malcolm Muggeridge. Many of his films, such as "The Front Garden", and "The Englishwoman and the Horse", are poetic celebrations of Englishness. He has edited numerous series, from the innovative ''Bird's Eye View'' (shot entirely from a helicopter) to the controversial "Real Lives", "Year of the French" (1982-83), and the multi-award-winning ''40 Minutes'' documentary strand, which he edited for four years, 1985-89. He was Executive Producer of many other award-winning programmes and series, including "Pandora's Box", "The Ark", "The House", "Full Circle with Michael Palin" and "Lie of the Land". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edward Mirzoeff」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
