Reshevsky, Samuel (Herman) (1911–92) chess player; born in Ozorkow, Poland. After emigrating to America at age eight, he was seven times the U.S. champion; his world title hopes were stalled by World War II, then by Soviet-dominated candidates' matches. Eclipsed by Bobby Fischer in 1957, he worked as an investment analyst and insurance salesman.
