Dick Cavett Does Bobby Fischer
In serendipituous fashion I came across an article written by Dick Cavett of New York. Mr. Cavett, it seems, had a well-regarded television career as "the host of “The Dick Cavett Show” — which aired on ABC from 1968 to 1975 and on public television from 1977 to 1982." During his tenure as a TV host, he interviewed Bobby Fischer three times. As a result, he developed a certain perspective on Fischer which he reveals in this superbly written article. I would strongly suggest that anyone even remotely interested in Bobby Fischer reads this article entitled, Was It Only aGame? and the follow-up article, Bobby and You. A video of one of the interviews can be viewed on YouTube.
