Odd Carl Arthur Borg (May 26, 1931 – November 13, 1965) was a Norwegian actor and singer.[1] He was engaged with the Central Theater from 1953 to 1960, and with the National Theater from 1960 until his death. Borg was found dead behind the Amphitheater Stage (Norwegian: Amfiscenen) after the premiere of the play Hva skal vi gjøre? by Klaus Rifbjerg and Jesper Jensen.[2][3][4]
As a singer, he recorded the song "Jeg plystrer mens jeg går" (I Whistle While I Walk) on a gramophone record in 1957.[5] It was a Norwegian version of the American hit "Just Walkin' in the Rain." As an actor, he is remembered for roles such as the intolerable daddy's boy and shipowner Rieber-Larsen Jr. in Operasjon Løvsprett, as a naval commander in Operasjon Sjøsprøyt, and the male lead role in Støv på hjernen. The same year he died, he starred in the next to last Stompa film, Stompa forelsker seg.
