Bio
Hi Jim,

Thanks for your message on my talk page. Sorry my first edits at the Jim McKay (director) page are so centered on The Wire. I was writing from what I knew of you which stemmed from your involvement with the series. I understand that it is reductive to present you as only a TV director. I wouldn't think of standing in the way of you expanding the article. That said I have seen in the past that wikipedia in general seems to discourage people from editing articles about themselves.

I see from scanning the recent history of the page that your edits in December weren't well received; perhaps we could work together on citing the information you added to ensure it meets wikipedia's standards, stays in and thus improve the article.

Thanks for contacting me. It was a pleasant surprise. As well as The Wire I'm a big fan of Life Support - tracked it down on DVD here in the UK and am slowly sharing it around family members. Well done on all your excellent work. Have recently got hold of Angel Rodriguez too but haven't found the time for a viewing yet, looking forward to it.

Best wishes,

Owen
