Biography

Zaorski was born in Piaski, Poland. He graduated from the Aleksander Zelwerowicz National Academy of Dramatic Art in Warsaw in 1964 and made his debut at the theatre on 31 January 1965. He performed at the Warsaw Contemporary Theatre until 1970, then at the Ateneum Theatre, National Theatre, Powszechny Theatre, "On Targówku" theatre and Square theatre, and the U Lopka, Pod Egidą, "Tu 60-tka" and "Kaczuch Show" cabarets. In the 1970s, he participated in productions of regular television programs (including Gallux Show and Studio Gama) and radio (60 minut na godzinę). In 1991, he received the Wiktora award for television personality.

From 1991 to 1993, he created the TV series Polskie Zoo.

In the early 1990s, Zaorski retired from active work in theater and film, though at the end of this decade and in the early 2000s, he starred in several TV series, as well as an amateur director. He suffered a stroke in 2004, causing paralysis and significantly reducing his ability to speak with his almost-synonymous voice. Issued in 2006, he wrote an autobiographical novel, Ręka, noga, mózg na ścianie,[4] in which he described the process of recovery from the stroke.

He was a part of the radio novel W Jezioranach.
