Biography
Born in Hov, Norway, Narum has degrees in political science, history and English from the University of Oslo.[1] He started his career in journalism at Oppland Arbeiderblad in 1964, joining the Norwegian News Agency in 1969.[2]
Narum joined the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation in 1975, where he headed the international newsroom at Dagsnytt from 1984 to 1987. From 1987 to 1991 Narum was a news correspondent for the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation in Washington, D.C. Returning to Norway, Narum headed the political newsroom at Dagsnytt from 1991 to 1997.[2]
In 1997, Narum joined Aftenposten, where he worked as head of the political newsroom (1997-2000), and acting political editor (2000). Since 2000, Narum was a political commentator and editorial writer at Aftenposten.[2] In a 2009 survey conducted by Journalisten among a bi-partisan selection of Norwegian political party leaders, Narum was tied with Trine Eilertsen as the best political commentator in Norway.[3][4][5][6][7] He is often referred to as the "grand old man" of political commentary in Norway.[4][5]
Narum retired from Aftenposten in September 2012.[8] His retirement ceremony was attended by Jens Stoltenberg, then Prime Minister of Norway, who made a surprise speech.[9][10][11] Following his retirement from journalism, Narum was recruited by Julie Brodtkorb as a communications consultant at JKL Group, becoming a colleague of Göran Persson.[8] He has maintained his participation in public affairs as a freelance writer and public speaker.[8]
