Tune-in for Chess Talk with IM John Watson on ICC Chess.FM. John's weekly 60+ minute show (members only) will feature an interview with leading chess personalities.
John's guest this week (Tue., 6 Nov.) is U.S. Women's Champion IM Irina Krush. At age 14 in 1998, Irina won her first US Women's Championship title to become the youngest ever holder of the title.
Irina's early work included her instructive "Krushing Attacks" series of training videos. She shot to international fame though for her part in the 1999 "Kasparov versus The World" Internet match hosted on MSN, as she became the conduit for the lead analytical team. Lately, Irina has led her own team, the New York Knights, to a wildcard playoff berth in the United States Chess League. |
