Erik Bye

Erik Erikssønn Bye (1 March 1926 – 13 October 2004) was a Norwegian journalist and artist, and one of the 20th century's most well-known and popular radio and television personalities in Norway.

Born in Brooklyn, New York, his family moved home to Norway when he was six years old and settled in the Nordstrand borough of Norway's capital Oslo. After growing up in there, and spending part of his teens working for the Norwegian resistance movement during the occupation by Nazi Germany in World War II, Erik returned for a while to his country of birth to get his scholarly education, studying English, journalism and drama at Midland College, Nebraska and the University of Wisconsin in Madison.
