Jacek was three months old when he committed his first crime - sneaking Solidarity paperwork in his diaper to Polish resistance leaders. You see, His Dad cofounded Solidarity and spent a year in jail. He was then given an offer from the Commies: "Leave the country as political refugees, go back to jail, or be traded out to the Soviets."
He chose America, and his parrents arrived with two suitcases, two toddlers (Jacek and his Sister), and no one spoke any English. They had a few dollars, his dad worked as a painter during the day and computer repairman at night, and his mom cleaned houses while the kids stayed home with friends. Years later, and despite the odds, they made it.
Jacek (Yacht-sek) is now a Dad, a writer, and Green Beret US Army Special Forces Warrant Officer. He's travelled to over 40 countries, run with the Bulls in Pamplona, and had incredible adventures. His last Spcecial Forces Mission to Afghanistan was captured in the Award-winning National Geographic Documentary RETROGRADE, which was nominated for 6 Emmys and made it on the Oscar Short List, and Jacek is featured as "Chief Jack."
Some of Jacek's stories are pure fiction while others are rooted in near-truths. Whatever the genesis, he loves creating, discovering, and challenging the people (and characters) within these stories to bridge the gap between fact, fiction, and you.
