Director Biography - Steven Nevius

I started as a production assistant 35 years ago and now work as a film and television editor. My first major break came when I joined Rob Reiner's crew on "The Princess Bride" back when movies were still made on film. I continued on this editorial team through "When Harry Met Sally…", "Misery" and "A Few Good Men". These days I edit television, the last 5 years cutting a fantasy drama, “The Magicians,” for SyFy. When I am not in front of an editing console, I surf with my 15-year-old daughter as much as possible
