Hvem er hvem?
(Redirected from
Hvem er hvem
)Hvem er hvem? (English: Who is Who?) was a Norwegian
encyclopedic format.[2]
The latest edition was edited by Knut Olav Åmås and narrowed down to 1,000 people. This differs from the older ones in style in that the articles are in a more journalistic style with personal characteristics, in addition to the purely biographical year information. About 340 of the 1,000 biographies also have signed authors.
