Tony Pierce-Roberts on AllMovie

A graduate of British television, cinematographer Tony Pierce-Roberts began attracting attention in 1982 with such visually arresting big-screen projects as Moonlighting. He hit his stride after 1985, working on subject matter ranging from literary adaptations (1991's White Fang) to door-slamming farce (1993's Splitting Heirs). Since his Oscar-nominated work for 1986's Room with a View, Pierce-Roberts has been one of the most valued members of the Ismael Merchant-James Ivory film concern. Tony Pierce-Roberts was the man behind the camera for such Merchant-Ivory gems as Mr. and Mrs. Bridge (1990), Howard's End (1992), and Remains of the Day (1993).
