Alexander Zakrzewski is an American television director and cinematographer. He has directed episodes of Cold Case, Law & Order: Criminal Intent, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Numb3rs and The Wire, and has also worked on several Tom Fontana produced shows including Homicide: Life on the Street, Oz and The Jury. Prior to his episodic work, he shot documentaries for independent film makers and US networks, including several for Harpo Productions, where he developed a reputation for fluid, handheld work.
