Robert Richardson has won three Academy Awards and earned seven Academy Award nominations for his cinematography. His work on director Oliver Stone's JFK earned him his first Oscar. His second and third came with The Aviator and Hugo directed by Martin Scorsese. These two films also garnered him BAFTA nominations for Best Cinematographer.

Prior to regularly collaborating with well-known directors like Oliver Stone and Quentin Tarantino, Richardson served an apprenticeship shooting second unit on Repo Man while filming television documentaries for PBS and the BBC. His work in television led Stone to hire Richardson to shoot both Salvador and Platoon. From there, he worked almost exclusively with Stone, filming Wall Street, Born on the Fourth of July and The Doors, while occasionally branching out to shoot films like John Sayles' Eight Men Out and City of Hope.

Richardson also shot Stone's Natural Born Killers, Nixon and U-Turn. He then began collaborating with Martin Scorsese and Quentin Tarantino. Scorsese chose him as DP on 1999's Bringing Out the Dead, while Tarantino snapped him up for Kill Bill, Vol. 1 and Kill Bill, Vol. 2.

Richardson continued to make his mark as Tarantino's DP on 2012's Django Unchained and 2015's The Hateful Eight, as well as on Ben Affleck's 2016 film Live By Night. He shot Director Andy Serkis's 2017 Breathe starring Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy; 2018's Adrift for Director Balthasar Kormakur starring Shailene Woodley and Sam Claflin for STX, and 2018's A Private War for Director Matthew Heineman starring Rosamund Pike. Richardson then shot Tarantino's 2020 hit Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which starred Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt, and 2021's Venom 2 for Sony/Director Andy Serkis.

Recent credits include 2022's Emancipation again with Fuqua for Apple Studios, 2023's Air directed by Ben Affleck for Amazon Studios, and The Equalizer 3 for Director Antoine Fuqua and for Columbia Pictures.

Doug Maguire was born on April 11th, 1973 in Hyannis, Massachusetts. After dropping out of Wentworth Institute of Technology, where he studied technical writing and electronic engineering, Maguire tried his hand at screenplays and making movies. While enrolled part-time at Emerson College in Boston, Maguire quietly made a name for himself as "the guy who can do it all" - write, direct, produce and edit - and by making it all come together on a shoestring budget. Most everything Maguire learned was picked up by reading indie filmmaking magazines, books by his favorite directors and paying close attention to every frame of his favorite movies, along with listening to the audio commentaries available on laser discs.

At the age of 23, Maguire found himself fired from the poster shop where he worked (selling movie posters and movie memorabilia), bankrupt, and dropping out of film school due to lack of funds and no financial aid. Instead of surrendering to these minor setbacks, Maguire set sails for a cross-country road trip and landed in Burbank, California.

Maguire created two controversial underground rap albums that were self distributed to casting directors and casting agents around Los Angeles. The first album, Scar Wars ~ Episode II: Attack of the Phone-E, was hailed by only himself as "genius" because the entire project was made in his car while he lived in poverty for over a year. After receiving a few breaks (Maguire worked as a stand-in for A-list talent) he used his money to create Scar Wars ~ Episode III: Revenge of the Sith Sense. This album, in particular, scared off many of his contacts. Maguire destroyed his reputation and a few lowly actors along with him that he deemed "bad for the biz." The final installment to Scar Wars was Episode I: The Phantom of the Matrix. When the albums failed to catch on the way Maguire had hoped, he quit making music and put Hollywood on hold. The Scar Wars "thrill-o.g." was never completed.

Maguire would then transition into graphic art. This was a natural next step for him since he had the only hand in marketing Scar Wars. Maguire's T-shirt company, PenalTees, is an outlet for his need to "stick it to the man any way you can" attitude through art.

In 2011, Maguire began production on the very independent movie Bank Roll (2012) through his company, MagCo Entertainment. This little indie went on to receive a few accolades Maguire had hoped for, winning Best Dramatic Feature at the Hollywood Reel Independent Film Festival, along with the People's Choice Award, where audiences voted it the best in the fest of 2012. The movie also won for Best California Feature at the California Film Awards, was honored with an Award of Merit from The Indie Fest and Los Angeles Movie Awards topped it off with an Honorable Mention. Scott Bailey also picked up his first trophy for the character he played, winning Best Supporting Actor from HRIFF 2012 under Maguire's direction.

Maguire joined The HONR Network in 2016 to fight internet trolls and bullies.

He has one son, Vincente Maguire.
