About Your Host
Hey, I'm Frank, and I love chess! I'm a California native who was originally raised in Southern California, and now I'm loving the East Bay.
I started my competing in chess tournaments in 1963, and I became a Master in 1980. In 1982 I was honored to become a Life Chess Master.
I have a head full of chess literature, and I have had a lot of experience teaching chess. My teaching career began in the early 1990's with Elizabeth Shaughnessy for Chess In The Schools where I taught for two and a half years. From there I created my own chess school in West Oakland which ran for another two and a half years.
A little more about me is that I make my living with my hands building homes.
