Congratulations to Arthur Feuerstein on the great article in this month’s Chess Life magazine. The story, which can be found on page 20 – 25 contains an excellent biography which covers his early days as a young up-and-coming tactician, the challenge to recover from a horrific car accident, to his present day status as a senior master.

There are also great anecdotes about his 50 year romance with his wife Alice, battles with Bobby Fischer, life in Germany and France, and highlights of key matches in his career.

We’re proud to claim Arthur as a regular member of our club. Anybody who has had a chance to commiserate with him knows that he’s a nice guy with a good sense of humor. He still loves to play wild games and dance on the razor’s edge. It a wonder to walk by his matches on Wednesday nights to see an uncastled king with pieces and pawns in various positions on the board while Arthur calmly dispatches another opponent!
