Famous chess players?

Submitted by jaller435718 on Wed, 03/04/2009 at 5:14pm.

I am doing a project in school over famous people and I was thinking of making my report over a famous chess player. If you have a favorite chess player post their name. The famous chess player with the most votes will be the chess player I will do my project on.

PS: Player has to have at least 2 books written about him.

In the U.S. perhaps the only famous chess player is Bobby Fischer. However, if you want to pick a famous person who was also a chess player, then you can choose and of the following: Ben Franklin, Humphrey Bogart, Woody Allen, John Wayne, Sting, Jimmy Carter, Barack Obama, Marcel Duchamp, Werner Heisenberg, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Will Smith, or Howard Stern.
