Michael "Mig" Greengard (born 9 June 1969 in Northern California, USA) is an American chess author and journalist who lives in New York City. Greengard also maintains the official English website of the Russian pro-democracy coalition, The Other Russia. Greengard's online column "Mig on Chess" appeared from 1997 to 1999 in The Week in Chess. He used to write columns for ChessBase and Chess Cafe. His chessninja.com website previously featured a popular chess blog, "The Daily Dirt", in which he had often passed on comments from Garry Kasparov. However, after some time of declining activity, the blog ceased in 2011, leaving room for Twitter as Greengard's preferred medium. He provides streaming audio commentary on major chess tournaments on Internet Chess Club's Chess.FM. He secured an important interview with Vladimir Kramnik on 16 December 2002. He was widely quoted as a commentator on the Garry Kasparov v X3D Fritz match in November 2003. More information...
