Gösta Stevens

Gösta Stevens (1 February 1897 – 24 September 1964) was a Swedish screenwriter and film director.

Stevens offered Karl-Ewert Christenson his services before a summer revue at Kristallsalongen in 1924.

Soon, Ernst Rolf took notice of the young writer and Steven wrote many numbers for him.

Among other things, he wrote the lyrics to Sommarnatt (with music by Mogens Schrader), often sung by Jussi Björling.

Stevens was one of Swedish film's most prolific screenwriters – between 1930 and 1954 he wrote almost 50 scripts.
