Elly Jannes (November 15, 1907 – February 11, 2006) was a Swedish writer and journalist.
Her perspective was always that of the working girl, aware of her origins and her upbringing, in the poor Sweden of the early 20th century.
In 1936 she left Idun, was hired as a reporter for the magazine Vi and worked for it until she retired.
Elly Jannes was married to a doctor, Svante Höjeberg (born in 1917, died in 1966), and had a daughter, Elle-Kari Höjeberg, born in 1953, who was working as a programme manager at Sweden Radio P2 (2006).
[4] Years later the Israeli director Dvorit Shargal made a documentary (Where is Elle Kari and what happened to Noriko-san?)
