American chess grand master, a child prodigy who began learning chess at age 6 and began competing in chess tournaments at age 10. He won his first Class A championship at age 14 in 1957 and went on later that year to win the 1957-58 US Championship. He became the World Chess Champ by defeating Russia's Boris Spassky on September 2, 1972 in the midst of the Cold War. After his win, chess rose to the level of competitive sports in the United States and chess teachers’ became dramatically busier. By the end of his life, Fischer had set several records; he was the youngest U.S. master and the youngest international grand master. He had won eight U.S. chess championships, invented a clock used in chess, and produced two books.D. Ames quotes F. Brady, "Profile of a Prodigy," p.2: "The date was March 9, 1943, and at exactly 2:39 p.m., war time, after nine hours of labor, Regina gave birth to her first son."
