Stieg Larsson (1954-2004) was a Swedish journalist and writer best known for his Millennium series of crime novels, which includes “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” “The Girl Who Played with Fire,” and “The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest.” Before becoming a novelist, Larsson worked as a graphic designer and journalist, specializing in investigative journalism and focusing on far-right extremism. Throughout his career, Larsson was an outspoken advocate for democracy and human rights. Tragically, he passed away in 2004 before seeing the immense success of his novels, which have since become international bestsellers, selling millions of copies worldwide and spawning film adaptations.
