Timeline
Had a son, Lars 'Lasse' Lindgren (born December 4 1926), from her relationship with Reinhold Blomberg. He was 30 years older than her and when she became pregnant he wanted to marry her, she refused and the boy lived with foster parents until she married Sture Lindgren in 1931.
Had a daughter, Karin Lindgren (born May 21, 1934), with Sture Lindgren.
Lived in the same apartment on Dalagatan in Stockholm from 1941 until her death.
Grew up in Småland outside Vimmerby in the south of Sweden. Her first book came out in 1944, and she made a breakthrough the following year with the stories about Pippi Longstocking. Countless stories about Pippi and other characters of Astrid's imagination and excellent story telling ability were translated to at least 55 languages and told to millions of children all over the world. Many of the stories were adapted for TV and even the big screen.
Her most popular character was Pippi Longstocking, which was an instant hit among children when she first appeared in 1945. But parents often were shocked by the unruly Pippi, who rebelled against society and happily mocked institutions like the police and charity ladies.
Received the Hans Christian Andersen medal in 1958.
At times, Lindgren voiced political concerns. In 1976 she received a tax demand that outstripped her income, and criticized tax legislation in the fierce satire "Pomperipossa In the World Of Money". The law was changed.
She wrote her last piece, a short mystery story, in 1987.
Lindgren was immensely popular in her home country. Few Swedes will ever forget her restful voice reading the stories that have become an integrated part of Swedish culture and collective consciousness. A theme park, displaying several of the settings from her books, opened in 1989 in her hometown, and attracts about 300,000 visitors yearly.
She defended children's rights and animal welfare, lobbying an animal rights bill into law in 1998. That year the Astrid Lindgren Children's Hospital opened, one of the biggest children's hospitals in northern Europe.
