Personal life He was born in Bergen as a son of Johan Ernst Mowinckel (1860–1947) and Nanna Vibe Selmer Beyer. On the paternal side, he was a nephew of Johanne Vogt and Agnes Mowinckel, and a first cousin of Edward Mowinckel-Larsen.

Career After middle school he attended commerce schools in London (1901) and Leipzig (1902). He worked at a trade office in Hamburg until 1905, and later entered his father's company, first as an apprentice, then as an employee. From 1912 this was a limited company, with Mowinckel as a board member. In 1922 the company established a branch in Oslo, which in 1929 was merged with Schee & Aas to form the company Schee, Aas & Mowinckel. Thorolf Beyer Mowinckel was a co-owner of this company. He died in 1963.
