Ingmar Bergman

Ingmar Bergman was born in Uppsala on 14 July 1918, the son of a pastor who became court preacher, an upbringing from which he drew his subject matter: the absence of God, guilt, humiliation. Director of the Malmö municipal theatre from 1952, then of the Royal Dramatic Theatre from 1963 to 1966, he pursued both careers side by side all his life and staged more than one hundred and seventy productions. Accused of tax fraud in 1976, he went into exile in Munich, where he worked for several years. He left some sixty films, wrote his memoirs and died on the island of Fårö on 30 July 2007, at the age of eighty-nine.
