Biography
Richard Linklater (b. 1960, Houston, Texas) left off studies in literature and drama at Sam Houston State University and went to work on a drilling platform in the Gulf of Mexico. In 1985 he cofounded the Austin Film Society and began making Super 8 movies of his peers. Slacker (1990) and Dazed and Confused (1993) pushed him to the forefront of the American independent scene. Great acclaim came with the romancer Before Sunrise (1995 – Silver Bear for direction at the Berlin IFF), the first film of a trilogy that also includes Before Sunset (2004) and Before Midnight (2013). His other independent pictures have also drawn attention, including Waking Life (2001) and Bernie (2011), but he has also worked with Hollywood (The Newton Boys, 1998; The School of Rock, 2003; Bad News Bears, 2005). He heads Detour Filmproduction.
