His father was a trade-union man and a communist. 1949-52 he attended
Stockholm's Royal Daramatic Theatre School. Through the years he made
more than 400 parts in theater, film, television and radio. He was also a
director, an author, a composer and a singer. On records he sang his
own songs where he attacked the injustices in our society. From 1986 and
for the remaining years he ran his own theater 'Brunnsgatan 4' in
Stockholm, where he did everything by himself, from acting to selling
tickets.
