Timeline
Became friends with Paul Newman when they were students at Kenyon College in Ohio in the 1940s.
Palme came from an upper class family in Stockholm. While studying at the college of Stockholm he got involved in student politics and got the opportunity to travel through post-war Europe in 1949.
He became president of Sweden's United Student Unions in 1952.
When prime minister Tage Erlander needed a secretary in 1953 he appointed Palme.
Palme had an impressive work capacity and also joined the Young Social Democrat's council in 1955.
In 1958 he became member of the Parliament, and during this time he was in favor of a Swedish nuclear bomb.
He kept the job as Erlander's secretary until 1963 when he was appointed cabinet minister. He made USA furious when he joined a demonstration against the Vietnam war together with North Vietnam's ambassador to Moscow.
His starring in I Am Curious (Yellow) (1967) led to calls for his resignation because of Lena Nyman taking a bath in the nude.
In 1969 he became leader of his party and prime minister.
The recession during the 1970s and the debate about nuclear power stations made it anything but an envious position to lead the country and the Social Democrats lost the election in 1976. As leader of the opposition, Palme increased his international work: trying to solve the Iran-Iraq war and nuclear disarmament in Europe.
He became prime minister again in 1982, having to make cutbacks in the public finances and trying to downplay the trade union's demands for collective ownership of private companies.
Olof Palme was murdered in 1986 by gunshots from a 1930s .357 S&W Magnum. Two bullets were found but the suspected gun was found many years later, the gun was too damaged by rust and water, so it could not be a reliable evidence. Two male suspects were detained, and later were acquitted and released; both men were later killed under mysterious circumstances. As of 2010, there is no murderer, so the case is still unresolved. In 2011 the time limit for this crime will expire and the case must be closed.
