Maia Chiburdanidze, Women's World Champion 1978-91, born on this day, 17th January 1961. She is pictured here having just succesfully defended her world title v. Irina Levitina in Volgograd, 1984.

Maia Chiburdanidze, the sixth Women's World Champion, was born on this day in 1961.
The Georgian grandmaster, only the second woman in history to be awarded the title, became World Champion in 1978 (the youngest ever at the time) and reigned until 1991.

"A strong memory, concentration, imagination, and a strong will is required to become a great Chess player."
