Camden, London, England, UK:
Sir Peter Alexander Ustinov (Londra, 16 aprile 1921 – Londra, 28 marzo 2004) è stato un attore, scrittore e drammaturgo britannico. Era anche rinomato come regista, regista teatrale e d'opera, scenografo, autore, sceneggiatore, comico, umorista, editorialista di giornali e riviste, conduttore radiofonico e televisivo. Noto spirito e narratore, è stato un appuntamento fisso nei talk show televisivi e nei circuiti di conferenze per gran parte della sua carriera. Era anche un rispettato intellettuale e diplomatico che, oltre ai suoi vari incarichi accademici, ha servito come Ambasciatore di buona volontà per l'UNICEF e Presidente del Movimento Federalista Mondiale. Ustinov è stato il vincitore di numerosi premi nel corso della sua vita, tra cui due Academy Awards come miglior attore non protagonista, Emmy Awards, Golden Globe e BAFTA Awards per la recitazione, un Grammy Award per la migliore registrazione per bambini, nonché il destinatario di onorificenze governative da, tra gli altri, Regno Unito, Francia e Germania. Ha dimostrato una versatilità culturale unica che gli è valsa spesso il riconoscimento di uomo del Rinascimento. Miklós Rózsa, compositore della musica per Quo Vadis e di numerose opere da concerto, ha dedicato il suo Quartetto d'archi n. 1, Op. 22 (1950) a Ustinov. Nel 2003, poco prima della sua morte nel 2004, l'Università di Durham ha rinominato la sua Graduate Society come Ustinov College in onore dei contributi significativi che Sir Peter aveva dato mentre prestava servizio come Cancelliere dell'Università dal 1992 in poi.
