This section is a "placeholder" for Dr. Birger Sandzén as information about him is found in the LINKS below.

Together, to some degree, these sections profile parts of Sandzén's life of study in Sweden and Paris and his career at the still very Swedish Bethany College, while he promoted his art throughout the United States and Sweden.  He was an Augustana Lutheran Christian.
