Steven Rodney "Steve" McQueen (born 9 October 1969) is an English film director, producer, screenwriter, and video artist. For his 2013 film, ''12 Years a Slave'', a historical drama adaptation of an 1853 slave narrative memoir, he won an Academy Award, BAFTA Award for Best Film, and Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama, as a producer, and he also received the award for best director from the New York Film Critics Circle.〔("Steve McQueen named best director by New York critics" ). BBC, 4 December 2013.〕 McQueen is the first black filmmaker to win an Academy Award for Best Picture. McQueen is known for his collaborations with actor Michael Fassbender, who has starred in all three of McQueen's feature films as of 2014. McQueen's other feature films are ''Hunger'' (2008), a historical drama about the 1981 Irish hunger strike, and ''Shame'' (2011), starring Michael Fassbender, a drama about an executive struggling with sex addiction. For his artwork, McQueen has received the Turner Prize, the highest award given to a British visual artist. In 2006 he produced ''Queen and Country'', which commemorates the deaths of British soldiers in Iraq by presenting their portraits as a sheet of stamps. For services to the visual arts, he was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2011.〔 In April 2014, ''TIME'' magazine included McQueen in its annual ''TIME'' 100 as one of the "Most Influential People in the World." ==Early years== McQueen was born in London and is of Grenadian〔(Kristin McCracken, "Interview: Steve McQueen Talks '12 Years A Slave,' 'Django Unchained', Pitt & Fassbender & More" ), Indiewire, 11 September 2013.〕 and Trinidadian descent.〔(Steve McQueen at Now Grenada ). Retrieved 3 March 2014〕 He grew up in Hanwell, West London and went to Drayton Manor High School.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ealing's Local Web site )〕 In a 2014 interview, McQueen stated that he had a very bad experience in school, where he had been placed into a class for students believed best suited "for manual labour, more plumbers and builders, stuff like that." Later, the new head of the school would admit that there had been "institutional" racism at the time. McQueen added that he was dyslexic and had to wear an eyepatch due to a lazy eye, and reflected this may be why he was "put to one side very quickly".〔 He was a keen football player, turning out for the St. George's Colts football team. He took A level art at Ealing, Hammersmith and West London College, then studied art and design at Chelsea College of Arts and then fine art at Goldsmiths College, University of London, where he first became interested in film. He left Goldsmiths and studied briefly at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts in the United States. He found the approach there too stifling and insufficiently experimental, complaining that "they wouldn't let you throw the camera up in the air". His artistic influences include Andy Warhol, Sergei Eisenstein, Dziga Vertov, Jean Vigo, Buster Keaton, Carl Theodor Dreyer, Robert Bresson, and Billy Wilder.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Steve McQueen )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Steve McQueen )〕 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「Steve McQueen (director)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
