Miroslav Grüner was born on March 12, 1963 in Prague to a family whose family mill in the Central Bohemian village of Srbeč was confiscated in 1953. One of his earliest childhood memories relates to the invasion of Czechoslovakia by Warsaw Pact troops in 1968. As a child, he helped save the half-demolished mill, which was returned to the family by the communists in 1970. Although the family had unpleasant experiences with the communist regime in Czechoslovakia, they did not ventilate their experiences too much in front of Miroslav Grüner as a child. He studied engineering and journalism. At a young age he worked as a journalist at Mladá fronta. In 1989 he decided to study abroad, which he did. In September 1989 he went to the University of Rouen. He returned after the revolution. In 2025 he lived in Prague.
