 | | Joshka: <Chessgames.com> Thanks for including these! I believe Lisa was USA's Women's champ for many years? |

<I believe Lisa was USA's Women's champ for many years?> I'm glad you asked:

Jul-11-04 | | Jim Bartle: I think Lisa Lane was the only chessplayer, male or female, ever on the cover of Sports Illustrated. |
|
Jul-11-04 | | iron maiden: I'm willing to bet Fischer made the cover at least once. |
|
Jul-11-04 | | SBC: . <I'm willing to bet Fischer made the cover at least once.> Fischer made it twice.

 | | Sneaky: In fact, I'm fairly certain that Joshka's avatar is taken from a Sports Illustrated cover.
"The Deadly Gamesman" was the heading. |
|
Jul-11-04 | | Dick Brain: <SBC> have to tried to do an interview of Lisa Lane? |
|
Jul-11-04 | | SBC: <Dick Brain> .
<have to tried to do an interview of Lisa Lane?> I'd considered it, but it seems that she's given up chess for good and I fear that I may be seen as an intrusion. If it were as a job, such as a journalist, I might consider it regardless, but not just for fun.

 | | Joshka: <sneaky> The avatar is from "Life" magazine taken I believe after Bobby wiped out Larsen and Taiminov in the finals matches. <sbc> So you have contact with her?? wow, thanks for that that site link...I'm almost ashamed as an American, that Im not familiar with her story...but then again I don't really remember all that much about Bobby from those years, chess really was put on the back burner in our media here in those days. Where is Lisa Lane residing now?? |

 | | Benzol: Hey <Sneaky> what happened to the R Perlis thread? |
|
Jul-16-04 | | Dick Brain: <Joshka ... Where is Lisa Lane residing now??> Lisa Lane Hickey must be living somewhere very near to Carmel, NY according to SBC's info: http://batgirl.atspace.com/carmel.h... |

Mar-30-05 | | pazzed paun: anyone have a guess what lisa lane's rating would have been? Did she ever play in the u.s. open or a club or state championship where she won games against men? |
|
Mar-30-05 | | RookFile: L Lane vs N Gaprindashvili, 1961
If she got a draw in a game like this,
she must have, at minimum, been expert strength. |
|
May-20-05 | | Caissanist: This game doesn't strike me as all that impressive--Lane is busted in the final position. I don't know why Gaprindashvili took the draw, the win looks quite straightforward. |
|
May-21-05 | | Caissanist: She was probably a rated expert, but she could not have been a master. Diane Savereide was the first American woman to make master, I believe in the early eighties. |
|
Apr-25-07 | | schnarre: <SBC> Her record's a good one at any rate! |
|
Apr-26-07 | | jackpawn: She retired to run a health food store, but several sources mentioned her chain smoking, at least back in her playing days. Anyone see a contradiction?! |
|
Apr-26-07
 | | WannaBe: <jackpawn> No, maybe she quit smoking, and became a 'born again' health advocate... |
|
Apr-26-07 | | jackpawn: Maybe . . . |
|
Apr-26-07 | | NakoSonorense: Hey, isn't she Superman's girl? |
|
Apr-25-09 | | Raisin Death Ray: <NakoSonorense> No, that'd be Lana Lang! |
|
Apr-26-09 | | Red October: she looks a bit muscular |

I used to visit her chess studio in the 1960s in the Village. Rossolimo also had a studio in the neighborhood. Good old times for chess |

I remember Chess Studio Rossolimo. I used to drop by after visiting Al Buschke ( chess book seller). It was a rat trap but full of good energy! There was another small place on the West Side not far from Times Square. I used to drop in after a trip to the old Melody Burlesque to cool down. ;) |
