THOR HEYERDAHL
1914-2002
Heyerdahl was one of Norway's most prominent
explorers. He was an archeologist and
environmentalist whose career spanned more than
60 years. But he is best known for his 1947 KonTiki
expedition. Traveling in a hand-built raft,
Heyerdahl sailed more than 4,000 miles across
the Pacifi c Ocean from Peru to French Polynesia.
His goal? To show that the islands had once been
settled by ancient South Americans. He wrote
an international best seller about his expedition,
which inspired the 1950 Academy Award-winning
documentary " Kon-Tiki, " plus a remake in 2012.

Vestly is one of the most beloved children's authors in Norwegian history. She wrote
more than 50 books, but she is perhaps best known for the series " Mormor og de åtte
ungene " (Grandma and the Eight Children). Her stories were entertaining and promoted
understanding and tolerance of modern families and gender roles in Norway. She won 20
literary awards over the course of her career, and her books were translated into several
languages. Besides writing, Vestly was also a television and radio actress.
