Life

Bohwin made her debut in 2008 with the novel Frognerfitter.[1] The book is about two girlfriends Billy and Susie, who live at Frogner in Oslo (where Bohwin grew up), and describes their lifestyle which includes a lot of drinking and sex, and addresses some of the myths that exist about people who live there. The book was published by Kagge Forlag and sold 28,000 copies.[2]

Since then Bohwin has written two books, MILF (2010) and Golddigger (2012), and has created a blog.[3][4] She has acquired the reputation of being outspoken and controversial. She has outspoken views about sex roles, life in Frogner and feminism.

For over four years, filmmaker Nina Grünfeld has followed Bohwim, and created a documentary about her life. The idea was to follow her for at least ten years, then to make a cinema documentary about living a different life. Over the years, she has been half-naked in several magazines, and describes herself as "a narcissist with empathy". [4]

Family

Bohwim's father is film director Knut Bohwim.[5]
