Bobby Fischer was my first boyfriend. Starting about 1955, I would go
to the Manhattan chess club with my father. My father would play, and
I would drink soda. I saw Bobby a few times there, and we would talk a
little. (We were both the same age and very shy.) I fell in love with
him at a tournament at Asbury Park, in New Jersey. We went to the
boardwalk together, went on rides and played games of chance. His
mother was real mad at him when we got back because he was almost late
for his game.

I think it was Memorial Day or Labor Day, Maybe 1955 or 1958. The
Asbury Park newspaper had a picture of me watching one of his games. I
wish I could get a copy of that picture. We wrote back and forth for a
while, and then I got too cool for chess and he got famous. One time,
a Jewish friend of mine said I couldn't marry him because he was
Jewish and I wasn't. I wish I could have seen her when he converted.

I love remembering him in such an innocent time. He was just a person,
like you and me, with a wonderful gift (and he was very cute). If
anyone can get that picture from the Asbury Park newspaper, please let
me know. I think it was on the front page, because we were only about
13 or 15, and he won.//
