Susan Polgar is an inspiration to the chess community. She was the first woman player to achieve the GM title by scoring three GM norms and crossing 2500 Elo rating. Previously there were two more women players Nona Gaprindashvili and Maia Chiburdanidze who had achieved the GM title but it was not by tournament play. 

In this interview we talk with Susan about her early beginnings in chess. How her father managed to create three chess champions in one house, how she managed to keep climbing up the ladder and become the Women's World Champion! This is the story of a woman who has broken the norms, and achieved something which is extremely uncommon. Welcome to the world of Susan Polgar.
