Annette Kullenberg

Elsa Caroline Annette Kullenberg (born 9 January 1939 in Stockholm) is a Swedish journalist and author. She studied philosophy at Uppsala University, and she started working as a journalist in the early 1960s. She worked at Aftonbladet for 25 years and quit in 2002 after a conflict with the editor-in-chief Anders Gerdin regarding the content of a column about Princess Madeleine of Sweden. The conflict started when Gerdin, without informing Kullenberg, modified the content of the column, downplaying the princess' problematic alcohol consumption.[1] Moreover, Kullenberg served as a foreign correspondent stationed in Buenos Aires and Barcelona for six years. She was also the chairman of the Swedish publicist club between 1994 and 1997.[2]

Kullenberg's first novel was Vänd på dig (published in 1967), and her second book, Överklassen i Sverige, was released in 1974, followed by Urp! sa överklassen in 1995.[3] She has also been working as a dramatist with a dozen radio and television plays to her credit.

Since 2009, Kullenberg writes columns for Expressen.[4]
