RFSL Stockholm's recipients of the Old Heroes Award 2016 are
Birgitta Stenberg
for
that she described and lived a queer life that broke the norms of twosomeness and cohabitation. Birgitta Stenberg was a writer and translator, recipient of the Selma Lagerlöf Prize for her ”daring to face the world and see without judgment”. With her autobiographical suite, she wrote about sexuality and expression that transcended societal norms.
Birgitta Stenberg passed away in 2014 and unfortunately we have not yet been able to notify her loved ones of the award.
