Wiesław Jacek Kamiński was born in 1943 in Stryj. Most of his professional life he has worked with Szczecin television. Currently, having worked in TVP for 46 years, he is retired. He climbed the ladder of journalism right to the top: from junior editor to commentator, from a rank-and-file journalist, through head of the “Kronika” newscast editorial board, opinion journalism and reportage, to editor-in-chief of the Ośrodek Radiowo-Telewizyjny in Szczecin. He also gained his professional experience cooperating with the Warsaw TVP editorial boards. Has co-authored for Studio 2 and Studio 8. He believes his greatest success to be the launch of Kanał 7, a local television program in TVP Szczecin, one independent from the Warsaw structures. In its prime Kanał 7 used to broadcast over a dozen hours of original program created by Szczecin journalists, complementing the offer with licensed entertainment and sport programs, as well as with classical music concerts. At that time Szczecin was the only city in Poland with an independent, self-reliant television free from Warsaw's supervision, and it enjoyed great popularity among the viewers.

As the director of TVP Szczecin he has initiated the building of a modern television base in our town. It is thanks to him that Szczecin has a station with two television studios and modern technical resources. As a journalist Jacek Kamiński has done mainly studio-based opinion journalism, only occasionally turning to film forms.
