Michael Bury

Michael is married, and has two sons. He received his BA in English from Towson State (Maryland) in 1985, and his

Master's degree in English from West Chester University in 1995. Since then he has spent much of his time teaching chess, and entering chess tournaments.

Michael is the Tournament Director of the West Chester Chess Club, where he lectures as well. He has published articles and chess games, and has helped set up chess clubs in several schools. His tournament wins include the Maryland State Chess Champ in 1984, and the Pennsylvania Senior Champ in 2005. He was the West Chester Chess Club Champion 14 times and is a Life Master of the United States Chess Federation.

We are looking forward to developing a great chess group. Maybe some will become champs!
