Paul Bryan Janeczko was born on July 27 1945 in Passaic, New Jersey. He is the son of Frank John and Verna (Smolak) Janeczko. Janeczko was not much of a student when he was young. In fact, he didn't like school at all. It wasn't until he was a student at St. Francis College in Maine that he realized what he had missed out on. To quote Janeczko, "That's when it dawned on me that it was time for me to start learning."
