He was born in Vestre Aker. He was a sub-editor in ''Fremtiden'' from 1907 to 1914, journalist in ''Social-Demokraten'' from 1914 to 1919, then editor-in-chief of ''Folket'' from 1919 to 1921.
In 1921 the Social Democratic Labour Party split from the Labour Party, and Amundsen worked in their main organ ''Den Nye Social-Demokraten'' from 1921 to 1927. The party reunited with Labour in 1927, and Amundsen returned to ''Arbeiderbladet'' (formerly ''Social-Demokraten'') and spent the rest of his career there.
He was also a local politician, biographer of Christopher Hornsrud (1939) and Trygve Lie (1946), and was a board member of the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation from 1935 to 1956. Provided by Wikipedia
