Lee's films "Girl 6," "Get on the Bus," "Do the Right Thing" and "Clockers" display his ability to showcase a series of outspoken and provocative sociopolitical critiques that challenge cultural assumptions not only about race, but also class and gender identity.
His debut film, the independently produced comedy "She's Gotta Have It," earned him the Prix de Jeunesse Award at the Cannes Film festival in 1986 and set him at the forefront of the Black New Wave in American Cinema. His second feature, the hit "School Daze," helped to launch the careers of several young black actors. Lee's timely 1989 film "Do the Right Thing" garnered an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay and Best Film and Director awards from the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. Lee's "Jungle Fever," "Mo' Better Blues," "Clockers" and "Crooklyn" were also critically well received.
Born in Atlanta, Georgia, and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Lee returned south to attend Morehouse College. After graduation, he went back to Brooklyn to continue his education at New York University's Tisch School of Arts, where he received his Master of Fine Arts Degree in film production. He founded 40 Acres & A Mule Filmworks, which is based in the Fort Greene section of Brooklyn, New York.
