Lena Mellin has covered politics at Aftonbladet since the 80s.

She has been a general reporter, news manager and deputy editor-in-chief.

But it is as a commentator that she has become one of the newspaper's most famous faces.

Despite her retirement, Mellin will continue to be heard and seen in Aftonbladet from time to time: she will write her Sunday column and participate in podcasts.
