BRITAIN-ENT-LITERATURE-NOBEL-PINTER

British actor Michael Gambon arrives at the home of Lady Antonia Fraser, widow of Nobel Prize winning playwright Harold Pinter, for a reception following a funeral ceremony for Harold Pinter, in London, on December 31, 2008. The family of Harold Pinter gathered Wednesday for a private funeral for the Nobel Prize-winning British playwright in London, where he died on Christmas Eve. His widow Lady Antonia Fraser was joined by other close relatives for the farewell ceremony, which the 78-year-old reportedly organised himself before his death last Wednesday from cancer.
