Entertainer, TV-personality. Born Jan Henning. He was a psychiatrist who had a natural talent for entertainment, and with time became one of the most appreciated figures of this field in Sweden. He was one of the front-figures of TV-show "Mosebacke Monarki" (Monarchy of Mosebacke), as well as in the Radio show "På Minuten". He also had a great hit with the song "Norgevisan" (Song of Norway) - a humerous act full of irony and sarkasm about the "brother land" of Sweden. He had some minor roles in films, for instance in "Äppelkriget" (1971) and "Repmånad" (1979). In 1983 he was one of the founders of one of Sweden's most popular music festivals - "Storsjöyran".
