David Schwimmer

Fair Game
The World

David Schwimmer played everyone’s favorite paleontologist, Ross Geller, on Friends for, well, a decade. He also co-starred in HBO’s war series Band of Brothers and in movies including The Pall Bearer and Madagascar ? at least his voice was in that last one. He’s appeared on stage in New York and London and co-founded Chicago’s Lookingglass Theater Company. And for years, he’s been directing plays and TV shows ? including episodes of Friends and Joey. And now he’s making his debut as a feature film director with Run Fatboy Run, starring Simon Pegg. Faith Salie speaks with David Schwimmer on Fair Game.
