 | Douglas Adams' Last Interview Douglas Adams sits down for what is most likely his last television interview in May of 2001. The interview was conducted in California just days before his tragic passing. Story directed and edited by Barton Bishoff. I really wish I could have set up better lighting for the interview. In fact, I did! The PR folks at the building where the interview was conducted made me take down the lights, leaving me with only a camera-mounted light to use and those really don't produce good results. |
