  "description": "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia\n\nReginald Cheyne Berkeley MC (18 August 1890 – 30 March 1935)) was a Liberal Party politician in the United Kingdom, and later a writer of stage plays, then a screenwriter in Hollywood. He had trained as a lawyer. He died in Los Angeles from pneumonia after an operation.\n\nHis son Humphry Berkeley was a Conservative MP in the United Kingdom.\n\nHis stage plays include The Lady With The Lamp (1929), based on the life of Florence Nightingale and starring Edith Evans in the title role, and The Man I Killed (1931), which was adapted for the screen as Broken Lullaby the following year. His play French Leave(1920) was filmed twice, once in 1930, and again in 1937. His screenwriting credits include Dreyfus (1931), Cavalcade (1933), The World Moves On (1934), Carolina (1934) and Nurse Edith Cavell (1939).\n\nHe died in 1935 in the Good Samaritan Hospital, Los Angeles aged 44 from pneumonia following a major operation. He was residing at 606 North Crescent Drive, Beverly Hills.\n\nHe had married Gwendoline Cock in 1914 and Clara Hildegarde Digby in 1926.",
