Jan Cremer (Dutch pronunciation: [jɑn ˈkreːmər]; born 20 April 1940, Enschede, Netherlands) is a Dutch author, photographer and painter. His best known work is the novel Ik, Jan Cremer ("I, Jan Cremer"; 1964) and the sequel Ik, Jan Cremer, tweede boek ("I, Jan Cremer, second book"; 1966). The publication of this book created scandal in the Netherlands because of its explicit sexual contents.[1] He has since been active as photographer and painter.[2][3]
In 1963 Cremer and painter Rik van Bentum made an obscure comic strip together about the Profumo scandal, which appeared in print two years later.[4]
