James Burrows (1940–) knows a thing or two about camera placement. The famed sitcom director of Taxi, Cheers, Friends, and Will & Grace is one of the most prolific television directors of all time, with over one thousand episodes of TV on his resume. But Burrows didn’t always aspire to a career in television. The son of playwright/director Abe Burrows, he grew up with an inside look at the entertainment industry and wanted nothing to do with it. He changed his mind in the mid-1960s. Gary Rutkowski conducted the interview on December 17, 2003, in Los Angeles, California.

詹姆斯·伯罗斯（导演）

詹姆斯·伯罗斯（James Burrows，1940年-）对相机的放置了解一两件事。Taxi，Cheers，Friends和Will＆Grace著名的情景喜剧导演是有史以来最多产的电视导演之一，简历中有一千多集电视节目。但是Burrows并不总是渴望从事电视事业。剧作家/导演安倍·伯罗斯（Abe Burrows）的儿子，长大后对娱乐业有着内在的眼光，并不想与之相关。他在1960年代中期改变了主意。Gary Rutkowski于2003年12月17日在加利福尼亚州洛杉矶进行了采访。
