(1933- )
Introduction

Anna-Lena Wibom joined the Svenska Filminstitutet (Swedish Film Institute) soon after its creation in 1963, and attended her first FIAF Congress in 1965 in Oslo. In her first decade at the SFI, she programmed the Institute’s cinematheque (Cinemateket), which moved to its permanant home at Filmhuset ("Film House") in 1971. In the late 1970s she became the SFI's Director (and from 1985 to 1993, its Artistic Director). Also for the SFI, she produced Andrei Tarkovski's Offret (The Sacrifice, 1986). She sat on the FIAF Executive Committee for twelve years (1981-93), serving as President (1985-89), Vice-President (1989-91), and Treasurer (1991-93).
