His father died early and he was brought up with his older brother by his mother, a former classroom lady in one of the St. Petersburg institutes. He graduated from the Gurevich gymnasium and the natural department of the Faculty of Physics and Mathematics of St. Petersburg University (both at the gymnasium and at the university he studied with Vladimir Obolensky , who was his close friend [1] ). Both brothers, even in the gymnasium years, were forced to give private lessons; In his student years, Gregory began to teach physics and chemistry in evening courses for workers organized in the factory district, on the Shlisselburgsky tract. In the courses, he met his future wife - Evgenia Valentinovna Schnakenburg (1855 - after 1917), who was in charge of a school for workers there.
At the end of the university, Grigoryev refused the proposed assistant position at the Department of Meteorology and devoted himself to work on courses. After marriage, he also began to teach in high schools; among them was the Tenishev School (from 01.09.1914 [2] ), the 13th Petrograd Gymnasium [3] . “In St. Petersburg, he was considered the best teacher of physics, and his textbook, replacing the outdated Kraevich , gained all-Russian fame” [1] and was used for some time in Soviet times [4] . His “Practical Studies in Physics” ( St. Petersburg : Knowledge, 1910) also survived a number of reprints [5] .
In addition, he compiled a school “Short Course in Chemistry” ( St. Petersburg : Knowledge, 1901; 9th ed. - 1916). G. M. Grigoriev was also the author of a number of essays and articles: “Conversation about sound” ( St. Petersburg , 1912), “Conversation about warmth” ( St. Petersburg , 1912), “What should be a high school?” (1914), “ Creating chemistry ”(M., 1932).
He had two daughters, Natalya and Tatyana (1901-1981) - the wife of E. E. Mandelstam [2] .
He died in 1915 "from a seizure of angina pectoris " [1] . VV Gippius wrote in The Obituary [2] :
He was worried about everything that was happening around, as a personal matter. In the revolution he was with the revolution, in the war - with the war, he lived every congress, every process, every new newspaper. And he thought about everything in his own way, often unexpectedly and witty, always somehow fun and a little anarchist, a little crafty and at the same time contagious, frankly ...
