Krzysztof Kowalewski (20 March 1937 – 6 February 2021) was a Polish actor and comedian. He was best known to Polish Radio fans for his role in a radio play I Love You, Mr. Sułek, but during his career he starred in over 120 films and TV series. Kowalewski frequently starred in Polish director Stanisław Bareja’s cult comedies, including A Jungle Book of Regulations (Nie ma róży bez ognia), Teddy Bear (Miś), and Brunet Will Call (Brunet wieczorową porą). Kowalewski was born to a Jewish mother, actress Elżbieta Herszaft-Kowalewska and Polish father, Cyprian Leon Kowalewski, who was a soldier. His first wife, Vivian, was from Cuba. For many years, he was in a relationship with actress Ewa Wiśniewska. They split up after Krzysztof met actress Agnieszka Suchora, whom he married in 2002. He had two children: Wiktor (from his relationship with Vivian) and Gabriela (with Agnieszka Suchora). Krzysztof has been awarded the Knight's Cross of the Order of Polonia Restituta, Gold Medal for Merit to Culture, "Gloria Artis”, and Grand Prize Splendor (Wielki Splendor).
