Jan Cremer, a writer and artist, was born in 1940 in Enschede. His father died in 1942, leaving Jan's upbringing entirely to his mother. Jan's mother, Rosza Csordás Szomorkay, was Hungarian and studied at the conservatory in Budapest. After the war, Jan Cremer was placed in foster families and colony houses by child protection services. In the fifties he held various jobs, served with the marines, and for some time worked as a sailor on the high seas. In 1958 he spent several months studying at the art academies in Arnhem and The Hague. Cremer lived for a time on Ibiza and left in 1964 for New York. Afterwards he lived alternately in America and Europe. As a writer, Cremer quickly became famous with "I, Jan Cremer" (1964). It is a picaresque novel with sex, violence and adventure. Because of this, the literary merit of his writing was not regarded very highly by everyone. The novel was kept out of libraries for a long time. "I, Jan Cremer" appeared in many languages. In addition to novels, Jan Cremer wrote travelogues and plays. The art of Jan Cremer consists of paintings, graphics and gouaches and often portrays Dutch, and also Italian, landscapes in vivid colors.
