Ignacy Jan Paderewski was a pianist, quite popular at that time.
After the outbreak of World War I, Paderewski, taking advantage of his popularity in the West, began extensive diplomatic activities on behalf of Poland and Poles. He collected, among others: funds to help war victims and was one of the co-founders of committees to help Poles on emigration in Paris and London. He travelled around the world and played for most known people in XX century. Before each performance, he spoke about his proposed independence for Poland. In a short time, he managed to get close to President Wilson's advisor, Edward House. Later, he met the president himself, to whom in January 1917 he handed over a memorandum on Poland (including the concept of the United States of Poland). Perhaps this is why the issue of Polish independence was included in Wilson's famous 14 points. In August 1917, he became the US representative of the Polish National Committee headed by Roman Dmowski.
He also had the opportunity to teach Herbert Hoover, later the 31st president of the United States.
I hope i didnt make any mistake.
Here is more about him hoover.blogs.archives.gov/2019/02/27/hoover-and-paderewski/.
I think that Maria Skłodowska-Curie was awarded the Nobel Prize twice: once in physics, and then in chemistry, for the discovery of radium and polonium
Jeśli rzeczywiście interesujesz się historią naszej części Europy to polecam książkę Timothy'ego Snydera ,,Bloodlands. Europe between Hitler and Stalin". Mocna, brutalna książka, którą, ze względu na to morze okrucieństwa, trudno się czyta, ale daje wgląd mieszkańcom z poza Europy Środkowo-Wschodniej przez co musieli przejść nasi przodkowie.
Dziękuje bardzo!
