Wojciech Leśnikowski was the son of Roman and Irena, born in 1938, one year before the German invasion of Poland.
In pre-World War II Poland, his father was a soldier, a lawyer and a politician.
His mother was Jewish, so when the Nazis arrived, his father hid the family on the rural property of one of his business clients.
His father fought on the side of the Soviet Union later in the war, and was sent to Kraków as a government administrator after it was over.
In 1948, when rulers found out about his father's anti-communist sympathies, the authorities came to the Leśnikowski home on Wojciech's 10th birthday.
He did not see his father again until 1953, when he was released from a Soviet Gulag following the death of Joseph Stalin.
His parents survived the war, but many of his family members did not.

He was a chief architect at HNTB, Loebl Schlossman & Hackl, and HOK Corporation.
He served as the lead designer of a hospital and a skyscraper – the iconic red CNA Center.
Wojciech married a fellow architect and educator Rebecca James in 1987.
He became a distinguished professor at The University of Kansas in 1988.
In 1990, he became a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters in France.
On July 22, 1995, he became a single parent to his two young daughters, when his wife died in a horse-riding accident in Poland.
He later married Julie Lesnikowski, owner of Jordan Ross Designs in Lawrence, Kansas.
