Inger Nilsson spent her childhood in her hometown, but any other information about her early life and parents is unknown in the media.

Speaking about Inger’s acting career, it began at the age of 10 when she was chosen to portray the title role in the TV series “Pippi Longstocking” in 1969, which was followed by the film of the same name later that year. She reprised the role in three more film titles – “Pippi Goes On Board” (1969), “Pippi In The South Seas” and “Pippi On The Run”  both in 1970, which marked the establishment of her net worth and increased enormously her popularity. The role earned her the 1975 TP de Oro award in the category for Most Popular Personage.

When the filming of these titles was done, Inger was educated for work as a medical secretary; however, she decided to pursue her acting career further. In 1989, she starred as Juliana in the short video “Kajsa Kavat”, and subsequently featured as Jessica Werstén in the TV film “Panik På Kliniken”. Her next major role came when she appeared in the role of Frau Andersson in the 2000 film “Gripsholm”, directed by Xavier Koller and based on Kurt Tucholsky’s novel, adding a considerable amount to her net worth.

In 2005, Inger reprised the role of Pippi Longstocking in the short video entitled “Astrid Lindgrens Jul”, which was followed by her guest-starring appearance as Barbro in an episode of the TV mini-series “AK3 – Dolda Beslut” (2006). In the following year, she was cast as Monica in the short video “The Numerologist”, after which she was chosen to portray Ewa Svensson in the TV series “The Inspector And The Sea” (2007-2017), increasing her net worth by a large margin.

To speak further about her acting career, Inger portrayed Principal in Magnus von Horn’s film “The Here After” in 2015. Most recently, it is announced that she will appear in the film entitled “Black Circle”, so her net worth is certainly still rising.

Apart from her career as an actress, Inger is known in her country as a singer as well. During the 1960s, she sang the title song for the TV series and film titles about Pippi Longstocking. She also released two songs – “Keep On Dancing” and “You’re The One For Me” – both in 1978, which also contributed to her wealth.

Additionally, Inger works as a secretary and sometimes appears in stage productions.

When it comes to her personal life, Inger Nilsson is probably single as there is no record of her marrying, nor even rumours of romantic associations. Her current residence is in Stockholm, Sweden.

Fact
1 Inger revealed in a Swedish talk show interview in September 2013 that, when she was 14 or 15, she was offered to star in a film, which, while not containing sex, would have her appear completely naked. Both Inger and her family turned down the offer, knowing that the film would’ve hurt her career. Interestingly, the script has since never been produced, making it obvious that it would have been an exploitative effort to cash in on her Pippi Longstocking fame.
2 Toured Sweden with Stephen Kings “Lida” (Misery) playing the female lead. [December 2001]
3 Inger has concentrated on acting in short-movies made especially for Göteborg Filmfestival (Gothenburg Film Festival) the last 2 years. [February 2007]
4 Works as a medical secretary in Stockholm, Sweden [January 2005]
5 Has performed at small theaters in Sweden since 1987.
6 Works as a doctor’s secretary in Stockholm.
7 Her role as Pippi Longstocking didn’t make her rich because it wasn’t allowed to pay child actors more than once in Sweden.
8 She says she has never regretted playing the part of Pippi, but even today in the 21st century people still recognize her wherever she goes. She wants to continue with the acting finds it hard to get roles and people instantly relate her to Pippi, even the producers and directors during auditions.
9 Inger sang the swedish title song “Har kommer Pippi langstrump” (Here comes Pippiu Longstocking) to all the Pippi films and series, wich became an evergreen in Sweden. She also recorded a version in Finnish, a language she doesnt speak at all, in 1970, released as a vinyl single with the title “Peppi Pitkatossu” where the poor girl really has trouble pronouncing things. She also released a single in 1978 with the disco song “Keep On Dancing” and the rocksong “Youre The One For Me” – it didn’t sell very well, but remains a classic camp-record in Sweden.
