Ulla Westermark

Huntingdon Medal Award Ulla Westermark (30 March 1927 – 22 February 2020) was a Swedish numismatist, who was a specialist in Ancient Greek coinage.

She attended the Högre allmänna läroverket för flickor (Higher General School for Girls) in Örebro until 1947.

[2] One of her tutors there was the German numismatist Willy Schwabacher (de), a specialist in ancient Greek currency, who inspired her interest in numismatics.

[5] In 1959 Westermark completed her doctoral thesis,[2] which was subsequently published in 1961, entitled: Das Bildnis des Philetairos von Pergamon.

[11][2] In 2002 Harald Nilsson edited a Festschrift dedicated to Westermark on the occasion of her 75th birthday, to which 47 numismatic specialists in Ancient Greek currency contributed.
