David Ionovich Bronstein (19 February 1924 - 5 December 2006) was a Soviet and Ukrainian chess player. He was named International Grandmaster by FIDE in 1950 and narrowly missed out on the title of World Chess Champion in 1951. Bronstein was one of the strongest players in the world from the mid-1940s to the mid-1970s and was described by his peers as a creative genius and master of tactics. He was also a renowned chess writer; his book Zurich International Chess Tournament 1953 is widely regarded as one of the best chess books ever written.
