His mother claimed Finnish and Ukrainian ancestry in addition to coming from a wealthy yet ancient Polish noble family. He started working as a police-court reporter for a daily in Moscow, going about his menial work without drawing much notice to himself. He tried a few times to publish the poems he was writing at this period, but the majority of publishers turned him down. Maxim Gorky became aware of this tale and suggested Andreyev focus on his writing endeavors. After giving up his legal career, Andreyev quickly rose to fame in literature, and the two authors stayed close for a long time.
