Scott Gorksi was born sometime between October 1 to October 12 of 1965 in Wroclaw to Essayist Oskar Gorksi and Writer Marie Salomea Gorksi.

He was raised in a poor family of farmers with two other Siblings, Anna Gorksi and Peter Gorksi, but never saw them for a while after the age of 12 when they were taken to his Aunt's home in France.

His Family bought a Candy Store in Downtown New York and began working.

He read 2001: A Space Odyssey and became more interested in Space Travel than anything. He began writing his first stories at a young age of 12 and dreamt of a Futuristic World where there will be Flying Cars and Spaceships.
