Robert James Fischer was born in Chicago but unlocked the secrets of chess in a Brooklyn apartment right above a candy store. At the age of six he taught himself to play by following the instruction booklet that came with his chess board. After spending
much of his childhood in chess clubs, Fischer said that, "One day, I just got good." That
may be a bit of an understatement. At the age of 13 he won the U. S. Junior Chess Championship, becoming the youngest Junior Champion ever. At the age of 14 he won the U. S. Championship and became the youngest U. S. Champion in history. Fischer would go on to become the World Champion of chess, but he would also grow to become his own worst enemy. Instead of defending the title, he forfeited it to the next
challenger without even making a move, and the rise of a chess superstar ended with a fizzle.
