Biography

Sten-Åke Cederhök, born Carlsson on 30 January 1913 in Båraryd parish in Jönköping County, was a Swedish revue artist, comedian and actor. He grew up in Gothenburg and made his debut in 1929 in Alingsås Folkets Park in a folk play. During the 1930s he worked on various theatre stages, including at the Hagateatern in Gothenburg, and became a well-known entertainer in the city.

Cederhök had a long career in revue and theatre and made his breakthrough with his work with Veckans Revy at Liseberg, which he directed for 25 years. His best-known role came through the TV series Albert & Herbert (1974), where he played one of the two main roles as the charismatic scrap dealer Albert. Cederhök also appeared in other popular programs such as Jubel i busken (1968) and played roles in films and TV series such as Ett köpmanshus i skärgården and Skärgårdsflirt.
