International Master Emory Tate died yesterday (Saturday) after collapsing during a tournament game near San Jose, California. He was a well-known player in the United States due to his sharp, creative play and his outsized, occasionally bombastic personality. While I played him three times I didn't know him particularly well, so I refer you to this excellent tribute by FM Mike Klein.

My condolences. i do not know if I ever met him. The game with Yudasin in Mike Klein's piece has some beautiful geometry throughout.
