I am not sure if I have published this picture in the past but this is Polly Wright, a chess teacher, player and TD among many other things. This picture was taken in Orlando in December 2006. By just looking at her shirt, you can see how much she loves chess!
Chess Daily News from Susan Polgar
Polly is my teacher.
Hi Polly
I am up in New England. Glad to see you are nice and warm. Cold up here right now.
Keep up the great work on teaching all the kids how to play chess. That is a wonderful activity.
Susan is our hero. Make sure you get out the vote for Susan come election time. Chess will be so much better with Susan guiding the way.
One of the great things about Polly is that she is involved in scholastic chess as a teacher and tournament director but also very much involved in chess clubs as an active club player. Susan: If/when you are elected to the USCF board, I would ask Polly to be in charge of a committee to address the apparent adult/scholastic schism.
