Om författaren

He studied at both the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts and the Central School of Speech and Drama. Pinter was a Nobel visa mer Prize-winning English playwright and screenwriter. One of the most influential modern British dramatists, his writing career spanned more than 50 years.

From his first marriage he has a son who is a writer and musician. Pinter has won numerous prestigious literary prizes in poetry and theatre.
