Biography
Dorn was born Ludwik Dornbaum,[3] to Polish-Jewish parents[4] Henryk Dornbaum (1910–1982), a socialist activist and Alina née Kugler (1915–2006), a doctor. All of his father's family was murdered during the Holocaust.[5]
In the 1960s Dornbaum family changed their name to Dorn. He was raised agnostic, but he converted to Roman Catholicism at the age of 51.[5] Dorn graduated with a degree in sociology from Warsaw University in 1978.[6]
From 31 October 2005 to 7 February 2007 he was Minister of Interior and Administration, resigned after conflict with the Prime Minister Jarosław Kaczyński.[7] Elected a Marshal of the Sejm on 27 April 2007, with 235 votes, after Marek Jurek's resignation.
On 4 November 2011, he, along with 15 other supporters of the dismissed PiS MEP Zbigniew Ziobro,[8] left Law and Justice on ideological grounds to form a breakaway group, United Poland.[9]
