Barbro Klein (1938 – 15 January 2018[1]) was a Swedish professor of ethnology.[2] After a bachelor's degree at the University of Stockholm in 1961, she obtained a scholarship to study at Indiana University where she received her Ph.D. in folklore studies and anthropology in 1970 under the direction of Richard Dorson.[2] She returned to Scandinavia in 1983, to take a position at the University of Stockholm. Klein was Director emerita of the Swedish Collegium for Advanced Study (SCAS), and a member of the executive board of the American Folklore Society.[2][3] In 2017, she was awarded the H. M. The King's Medal for “significant contributions to Swedish and international scholarship and as an ethnologist.”[2][4]
Klein wrote extensively on oral narration, rituals, and expressive culture, often in multi-ethnic settings. Her main fields were the folklore of Northern America and Scandinavia.
