Henrik Stangerup

Henrik Stangerup was born in Frederiksberg on 1 September 1937, the son of the critic Hakon Stangerup and the actress Betty Söderberg. He studied theology from 1956 to 1960, then became a journalist, first at Ekstra Bladet, with a post in Paris, then at Politiken from 1964, where he wrote on literature and cinema. Married from 1967 to 1976 to the actress Lotte Tarp, he made three feature films in the seventies; the failure of the last ruined him. A novelist translated into many languages, he died on 4 July 1998.
