Finn Jor

Finn Bartol Horgen Jor (born 20 January 1929) is a Norwegian journalist and writer.

He was born in Kristiania as a son of Sverre A. Jor (1902–1962) and Ambjørg M. Horgen (1902–1970).[1] He graduated from the University of Oslo in 1954 with a mag.art. degree in the history of ideas,[2] with a thesis on Søren Kierkegaard, and was hired as a journalist in Morgenposten in 1955. He left in 1961 after a rather unsuccessful editorial attempt to emphasize cultural topics in the newspaper. After two years as a research fellow in NAVF he worked at a university college in Århus. He was hired in Aftenposten in 1964, and eventually became debate editor and cultural editor. He retired in 1992.[1] He has continued releasing books with topics ranging from the history of ideas, culture policy and cultural history to poems, essay collections and novels.[2] Jor has been a jury member of Nordic Council's Literature Prize, has chaired Norwegian Non-Fiction Writers Association[1] and was a co-founder of Kopinor.[3]

He was married to Louise Vislie from 1954 to 1969, and later to Finnish citizen Eeva-Liisa Sallinen.[1] He chaired the Norwegian-Finnish Association from 1991 to 1992, and in 1995 he was decorated as a Knight, First Class of the Order of the Lion of Finland. He lives at Bekkestua.[3]
