Richard Curtis
A prolific screenwriter, producer, and director for film and television, Richard Curtis has earned international renown for his award winning comedic storytelling. His most personal project—eradicating poverty worldwide—is a story still in production.
A New Zealander by birth, Richard Curtis is best known as the Oscar-nominated screenwriter for the popular British romantic comedies Four Weddings and a Funeral, and Notting Hill as well as the Mr. Bean television series. His most recently broadcast film, HBO’s Emmy-winning The Girl in the Café, asked hard questions about Third-World debt and poverty in Africa. In addition to co-founding the Make Poverty History campaign and the Live 8 concerts, Curtis founded Comic Relief UK in 1985 to raise money for victims of famine in Ethiopia.
