Stephen Mirrione (born February 17, 1969 in Santa Clara County, California) is an American film editor. He won an Academy Award for his editing of the film "Traffic" (2000).

Mirrione attended Bellarmine College Preparatory and then the University of California, Santa Cruz, from which he received his bachelor's degree in 1991. [" [http://bcp.org/data/files/gallery/ConnectionsGallery/connections_fall_2005.pdf Bellarmine College Preparatory Connections] ", Fall 2005 issue. Online version retrieved Jan. 8, 2008.] He moved to Los Angeles, and began a collaboration with Doug Liman, who was then a graduate student at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts. Mirrione edited Liman's first feature films "Getting In" (1994), "Swingers" (1996), and "Go" (1999), which was an homage to Akira Kurosawa's 1950 film "Rashomon".Newman, John (2001).

The director Steven Soderbergh attended the opening of "Go" and met Mirrione. About one year later he asked Mirrione to edit "Traffic" (2000), which earned Mirrione an Oscar. Todd McCarthy characterized the effects of the camerawork and editing, "Soderbergh has given the film tremendous texture as well as a vibrant immediacy through constant handheld operating, mostly using available light, and manipulating the look both in shooting and in the lab. Stephen Mirrione's editing, which gives "Traffic" a beautifully modulated overall shape, is characterized on a moment-to-moment basis by jump cuts and jagged rhythms. Overall result is far too stylized to call the approach verite, but pic looks far more caught-on-the-run, and therefore far less staged, than all but a few other American films." [McCarthy, Todd (2000). [http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117796955.html?categoryid=31&cs=1 "Traffic"] , "Variety" Dec. 12, 2000; online version retrieved 2008-07-13]

Mirrione subsequently edited all three of the "Ocean's" films directed by Soderbergh and starring George Clooney ("Ocean's Eleven" (2001), "Ocean's Twelve" (2004), and "Ocean's Thirteen" (2007)).

Mirrione won an American Cinema Editors "Eddie" Award in 2006 for his editing of Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's film "Babel", for which he was also nominated for an Academy Award. He has been nominated four times for BAFTA Awards for editing "Traffic", "21 grams" (also directed by Inarritu - 2003), "Good Night, and Good Luck" (directed by George Clooney-2006), and for "Babel".
