He was born Ludwik Dornbaum,[1] to Jewish parents,[2] Henryk Dornbaum, a socialist activist and Alina née Kluger, a doctor. All of his father's family was murdered during the Holocaust.[3] In the 1960s Dornbaum family changed their name to Dorn. He was raised agnostic, but he converted to Roman Catholicism at the age of 51.[3]
