Biographical History
Henry Archacki (b. 1907), a Polish American artist, journalist, publisher, and illustrator, was born in Warsaw, Poland, and came to the United States as an infant. His family settled in Chicago, Ill., where Archacki showed an early aptitude for art and journalism. He worked as sports reporter for Dziennik Związkowy (Chicago), and in 1930 went to New York as head artist for the Brooklyn branch of the paper. In 1931, he began his "Czy wiecie że" drawings, became sports editor of Poland and Czas, and, later, of Nowy Świat. Archacki remained active in Polish American organizations, including the Reymont Literary Guild, the Polish American Athletic Club, the Polish American Tennis Club, and the General Krzyzanowski Memorial Committee.
