Kjell Tellander


Kjell Tellander was a Norwegian politician for the Conservative Party.
He was elected to the Norwegian Parliament from the Market towns of Nordland, Troms and Finnmark in 1945. He was not listet at the conservative party ballot, but was elected by popular votes. He was not re-elected in 1949.
He was born in Oslo, enrolled as a student in 1917 and graduated as cand.jur. in 1922.
He was acting stipendiary magistrate in Tromsø from 1924 to 1926 and chief administrative officer of Bodø from 1928 to 1967. He was never involved in local politics, and felt his election to the Norwegian Parliament was a call for him as a district representative, rather than a representative for a specific political party.
