Early life

Birth and background

Thomas Danielsson, whose full name is Carl Thomas Åke Danielsson, was born on July 6, 1940, in Engelbrekts församling, Stockholm, Sweden. He was a native of Sweden, with his early life rooted in Stockholm before his later professional activities in the film industry.

Career

Early career in Sweden (1970s–1980s)

Thomas Danielsson began his career in the Swedish film and television industry in the late 1960s, with his first known credit as unit manager on the film Misshandlingen (1969). He made his directorial debut with Varför rymde Nikkos? (1977), where he served as director. In the 1980s, Danielsson became involved in children's and young people's television in Sweden, taking on multifaceted roles as director, writer, and producer. His most notable work from this period was the TV mini-series På kurs med Kurt (1981), which he created, wrote (idea and creator), directed (5 episodes), and produced (5 episodes). The series, a popular children's program featuring Michael Segerström as the lead character Kurt, highlighted his ability to craft engaging content for young audiences. He continued this focus with Skatten på Bråtehus (1984), where he served as both director and screenwriter. These projects established his reputation for creative involvement across multiple aspects of production in Swedish television during the decade.

Later filmmaking and documentaries (1990s–2000s)

In the 1990s and 2000s, Thomas Danielsson shifted his focus to documentary filmmaking, directing several works that often explored personal and social issues, particularly those affecting young people. This period marked a continuation of his interest in children's and youth themes from his earlier television work, evolving into more intimate portrait and issue-based formats. He directed and wrote the 1999 documentary Utomjordingen. In 2003, Danielsson directed, produced, served as production mixer, and acted as legally responsible for Johanna! Yohanna! : Från helvete till paradis (also known as Johanna! Yohanna! or Johanna Yohanna), a 30-minute documentary portrait that recounts the experiences of Yohanna Troell, who faced persistent bullying from her first school year onward. The film has an IMDb rating of 7.6 out of 10 based on 26 votes. Danielsson continued this trajectory with the 2005 documentary Ylva och draken - en berättelse om anorexi (also known as Ylva og dragen), which he directed and scripted, addressing the subject of anorexia through a personal narrative. In 2008, he directed and wrote Troells troldspejl (also known as Troell's Magic Mirror), a 58-minute documentary offering an in-depth portrait of Swedish director Jan Troell, incorporating unique footage from Troell's personal archive and candid discussions.

Film consultancy and additional roles

Thomas Danielsson served as film consultant for children's feature films at the Danish Film Institute from 1999 to 2001. In this capacity, he provided consultancy on several Nordic children's productions during and shortly after his tenure. These included Den bästa sommaren (2000), Send mere slik (2001), Bäst i Sverige! (2002), and Ulvepigen Tinke (2002). On Ulvepigen Tinke, he additionally contributed to adaptation and script development. Beyond consultancy, Danielsson took on other supporting roles in film. He narrated the 1995 production Om hus och sån't: balkonger. These activities occurred alongside his continued documentary directing work into the 2000s.

Later life and death

Relocation to Denmark

In the late 1990s, Thomas Danielsson began his professional engagement in Denmark as a film consultant for children's feature films at the Danish Film Institute, serving in that role from 1999 to 2001. He continued contributing to Danish cinema in the early 2000s by providing consultancy on several Danish-language and co-production titles, including Den bästa sommaren (2000), Send mere slik (2001), Bäst i Sverige! (2002), and Ulvepigen Tinke (2002). Danielsson resided in Denmark during his later years and died in the town of Ærøskøbing on 10 May 2024.
