Famous Swedes

I enjoyed the photo exhibit (think it was called Crossroads) at the airport on June 11, 2014 (and yes again the date on the camera was set wrong but since the poor old thing is now consigned to the garbage ...) when I left for India. Was surprised how many of the Swedes I now recognize either from their image or their name or both. How many do you recognize?

Noomi Rapace from The Millennium Trilogy films (and of course other Swedish productions not as well known to North Americans)

Michael Nyqvist - also from the Millennium Trilogy films (and of course other Swedish productions not as well known to North Americans)

Hans Rosling - our class's hero!

Writer Jonas Gardell author of  'Don't Ever Wipe Tears Without Gloves' a trilogy of novels about the effects of HIV/AIDS on the gay community in Stockholm in the 1980s

The one and only Zlatan
