Directing work
Directing work
Landau's earliest credit was as production assistant on the 1973 film The Iceman Cometh, produced by his father, Ely Landau. By 1976 he was serving as assistant director, on the film Leadbelly, starring Madge Sinclair and Albert Hall, and as first assistant director on the television series Dynasty and T.J. Hooker. He has also directed episodes for such television series as Beverly Hills, 90210, seaQuest DSV, Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, M.A.N.T.I.S., Sliders, JAG, and Dark Angel. Actor Garret Wang recalled Les Landau directing the Voyager episode "The Chute". Wang said that while he tried to focus on his part, the series' other actors often engaged Landau about possible directing opportunities. The cast had just begun to direct the series (Wang's co-star McNeil had made his directing debut on the preceding episode), and the others were excited about their own prospects. Landau produced and directed Archibald the Rainbow Painter (1998), a fictional film about Vietnam veterans, written by Laura Landau.
