Grzegorz Gortat
Urodzony pewnej kwietniowej niedzieli 1957 roku w Łodzi. W 1979 roku w ślad za przyszłą żoną przenosi się z Łodzi do Warszawy. Ukończył filologię angielską na Uniwersytecie Warszawskim, sukces przypieczętowując tytułem magistra. W 1986 roku odnotował kolejny sukces zostając szczęśliwym ojcem. Jako świeżo upieczony magister powrócił do szkoły. Osiem lat później odpłacił socjalistycznej ojczyźnie niewdzięcznością, rezygnując z posady nauczyciela. Rodzina zyskała, ojczyzna, zajęta transformacją systemu, nie spostrzegła straty.
Pisarz, tłumacz literatury anglojęzycznej.
