Once one of Sweden's hardest working actors, he has descibed himself as
a workaholic during the 1940s. He has played all kinds of roles, both
comedy as in Fram för lilla Märta eller På livets ödesvägar: Ett biografdrama i prolog, epilog och ett antal tableauxer (1945) as well as the psychotic teacher Caligula in
Alf Sjöberg's Torment (1944). And although he only did smaller roles in a lot of
films, his characterizations never went unnoticed. He was also an actor
on the stage, both in revues and dramas. He spent his last years in
Rocquebrune at the French Riviera with his wife Aase.
