Answer:
May I assume you meant John Paul Two? He was born Karol Wojyla. At 18 he enrolled in Krakow's Jagiellonian University in 1938 and in a school for drama.
In 1942 he was one of the pioneers of the clandestine, because of the Nazis, "Rhapsodic Theatre."
On January 13, 1964, he was appointed archbishop of Krakow by Pope Paul VI, who made him a cardinal June 26, 1967
On the afternoon of May 13, 1981, Pope John Paul II was struck by three bullets while being driven in a slow-moving convertible through St. Peter's Square, where 20,000 people had gathered to see the pontiff. Rushed to a hospital, the pope barely survived a six-hour operation. Two bystanders were also injured in the attack.
