James Herbert (born 1938) is an American painter and director most known for directing a series of classic music videos for the band R.E.M.. He has also made over forty short films, including ''John Five'' (1992) and ''Jumbo Aqua'' (2001), and directed four independent features: ''Scars'' (1997), ''Speedy Boys'' (1998), ''Rabbit Pix'' (2005) and ''Abandoned House'' (2007). Some of his short films have been collected on the video compilation ''Figures'' (1990).〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Figures (1990) )〕 Herbert was born in Boston, Massachusetts. He studied with the abstract expressionist painter Clyfford Still and the experimental filmmaker Stan Brakhage. Herbert was R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe's art professor when he studied at the University of Georgia. Stipe greatly admired Herbert's films, and in addition to having him helm R.E.M.'s earliest music videos, he later cited Herbert as a significant influence on him individually and artistically.〔 (【引用サイトリンク】title=Title unknown )〕 ==Music video filmography== * "Wolves, Lower" (live), R.E.M.
