Bohdan Tomaszewski

Tomaszewski attended Warsaw's Stanisław Staszic High School, and began playing tennis in 1936 in Legia Warszawa.

He participated in the Warsaw Uprising, as a soldier of the Home Army (nom de guerre “Mały”).

Later on, Tomaszewski began working for Express Wieczorny, and then moved to TV and radio.

His radio debut took place in early May 1947, when he commented the Davis Cup match Poland – Great Britain in Warsaw.

During the Martial law in Poland, Tomaszewski refused to cooperate with the regime-sponsored Polish Radio, and did not return to mass-media until 1989.
