Los Angeles, Aug. 20 (Reuters): Oscar-winning film star Elizabeth Taylor is back home and doing well following a recent stay of several weeks in a Los Angeles-area hospital for unspecified reasons, her spokesman said yesterday.

Publicist Dick Guttman said he had no further details other than to confirm a report on the website for People magazine quoting a friend of the 76-year-old actress as saying she had resumed normal activities.

“Taylor is at home and happy — and busier than ever,” the unidentified friend told People.com. “She’s living her life. She’s been having dinner with friends. She’s working.” Sources did not say when exactly the 76-year-old was discharged.
