I studied at The National College of Art and Design in Stockholm.
In 1962, I recieved a scholarship from the Hallmark Cards company in Kansas City--where I worked for two years. Then, I took on one year to experience the great New York CIty and the position of a graphic designer.
Back in Sweden, my title became "Art Director".
In 1974, I went back to the US and spent five successful years as
an artist and illustrator with my own exhibitions in San Francisco. CA.
