Biography edit

Hjartarson was born in Hvanneyri, Borgarfjörður. He lived in Norway for a long time and studied art at the Art Academy of Oslo under the direction of Axel Revold from 1931 to 1932. His first publication was a novel written in Norwegian in 1934, but he is known for his poetry books in Icelandic. He made his national debut in 1944.[2] Hjartarson was a librarian at the Reykjavik City Library (Borgarbókasafn Reykjavíkur) after he moved back to Iceland. From 1942-1966 he served as City Librarian, taking over the post from Sigurgeir Friðriksson.[3] In 1981, he was awarded the Nordic Council Literature Prize for his poetry collection Hauströkkrið yfir mér.[4]
