Educated as a lawyer at Lund he left a successful practice in 1932 to write, and that same year published his debut, ''Bombi Bitt och jag'' ("Bombi Bitt and me"), a Scanian Tom Sawyer-like story of sorts. ''Bombi Bitt'' is what he is most remembered for; it was made into both a movie in 1936, and a TV-series in 1968, the series starring Stellan Skarsgård of present Hollywood-fame in the lead role as Bombi Bitt, with Piraten himself as the narrator.
