He wrote several volumes of poetry, and worked at different newspapers, most notable in the 1830s at the liberal Aftonbladet,[1] and in the short lived 1940s weekly publication Stockholms Figaro.[2]
The street Orvar Odds väg at Kungsholmen in Stockholm is named after him, and in Helsingborg there is a Sturzen-Beckers park.
