Tinne Vammen (November 23, 1942 – October 5, 2016) was a Danish historian, considered a pioneer in women's history research in her country.
[1][2][3] Growing up in nearby Lillerød, she was one of five children born to Knud Ejnar Daniel Knudsen, an agribusinessman and local Venstre party politician, and Emilie Christiane Mouritzen, a former nursing student.
[1][5] Due to her gender and the subject matter she worked on, she faced difficulties throughout her career, and much of her research was self-financed.
[2] Her first book, Rent og urent (1986), comprised a groundbreaking discussion of women in the Capital Region, focusing on housemaids and their mistresses, from 1880 to 1920.
[2] She co-edited the anthologies På tröskeln till välfärden (1995), Charitable Women (1998), and Den privat-offentliga gränsen (1999).
