- Description
- Julius Berg Johannesen was born in 1869 to Johannes Johannesen Bauman and Barbro Susanna Pedersdatter in Kiby (Tyby), Nord-Varanger, Finnmark county, Norway. Julius immigrated to the United States in 1891 and settled in Minnesota. Baumann's poetry of the Norwegian-American immigrant experience was very popular. He published two collections of poetry during his lifetime: Digte (Poems) in 1909 and Fra vidderne : nye digte (From wit explained : new poems) in 1915. A third collection, Samlede digte (Collected Poems), was published posthumously in 1924.
