Born in Bergen, Ramm was married twice, first to Wilhelm Ernst Ramm, and second time to Trygve Alfarnæs.[2]

Career

Ramm made her literary debut in 1958 with the novel Med støv på hjernen ("With dust on the brain"). The novel was translated into several languages, and was basis for the successful film Støv på hjernen in 1959, as well as a Danish remake from 1961. She went on to write other crime novels.

She wrote 22 books, and edited the magazine Sykepleien ("Nursing") from 1973 to 1977. She advocated the theory of a plural ego in her 1995 book Det plurale jeg. Normalt å være spaltet?, and wrote other books on religion and psychiatry.
