Trivia

One of the greatest actors in Swedish theatre, he was a master of disguise for his many roles, building his body with implants in his shoes and several layers of clothing, starving himself, bruising his face with a shoe brush, making himself incredibly tall or very small - sometimes to the point that fellow actors, with whom he had worked for years, didnt recognize himself in the corridors backstage.

Joined the Stockholm Royal Dramatic Theatre in 1906.
