After a training as an illustrator at Goldsmiths College, London, Michael Dickins Ford (born 1928, southern England) worked as a scenic artist until “drifting into” the film industry via commercial television. His first movie was Man in the Moon, and he first attracted attention in The Anniversary with Bette Davis (1968) and in Kelly’s Heroes (1970). His first Academy Award, for set decorator, was for Raiders of the Last Ark in 1980, followed by recommendations for Star Wars and Empire of the Sun and a train of successes with the James Bond film series. Michael’s apogée was realized in 1998 with an Oscar for his work on Titanic. These days, he amuses himself with painting and traveling.
