Autorenporträt
Harold Pinter wurde 1930 in London geboren. Er war nach seiner Ausbildung an der Royal Academy of Dramatic Art bis 1957 Schauspieler an diversen Provinzbühnen. Die Uraufführung seines ersten abendfüllenden Stücks 'Die Geburtstagsfeier' stieß 1958 bei der englischen Kritik auf Unverständnis; 1960 etablierte ihn schließlich 'Der Hausmeister' als einen der meistgespielten und einflussreichsten britischen Dramatiker.
Neben Stücken hat er Drehbücher (u.a. für Regisseure wie Joseph Losey, Elia Kazan, Robert Altman, Volker Schlöndorff und Paul Schrader) geschrieben, Hör- und Fernsehspiele sowie den Roman 'Die Zwerge', Regie geführt und als Schauspieler in Film und Theater gearbeitet.
Harold Pinter erhielt den Literatur-Nobelpreis 2005.
