Eduard (Eddie) Efimovich Gufeld was born in Kiev, Ukraine on March 19, 1936 and died on September 23, 2002 in Los Angeles at the age of 66. Gufeld played
in his first chess tournament in 1953 at the age of 17. He became an
International Master in 1964 and
finally became an International Grandmaster in 1967. In 1977 his Elo
rating was 2570 and ranked 16th in the world.
In 2000 he had a USCF rating of 2565. He was the
trainer of Maya Chiburdanidze who became the youngest women's world
chess champion in 1978. He later became coach and trainer of the
Soviet men and women Chess teams. He was a
prolific author of books and had written more than 100 chess books,
which sold 3.5 million copies worldwide. He was considered as the
world's most flamboyant chess grandmaster. He was one of the most
travelled grandmasters in chess history. He visited over 100
countries. In Russia he earned the status of "chess
emeritus." In 1973 he
won a game against Bagirov and considered it his best game, his Mona
Lisa (lesson 38). In his day, Gufeld defeated Tal, Spassky, Korchnoi,
Bronstein (6 times), Polugaevsky (4 times), Taimanov (3 times), and
Smyslov. He drew with Petrosian, Kasparov, Karpov, Geller, and Keres. He will also
be remembered for starting the FIDE Committee on Chess Art and
Exhibition and being instrumental in reviving the chess brilliancy
prizes in top tournaments. He was a
great player and an even greater ambassador of Chess. He was a
generous man and will be remembered by many all over the world. I
remember when he used to say to those who laughed at his English,”
"I think that my English is better than your
Russian!" Happy Birthday my friend!
