Wesley Ted Brandhorst (1933-2019) Ted learned chess in high school. His chess improved in college which led him into chess problem solving and composing. Ted didn't play any chess between 1965 to 1975, but then ventured into correspondence play. After a slow start, steady improvement was encouraging and led Ted to qualify for the U.S. CC championships and often for the Absolutes. Ted played on a number of U.S. teams in international competition against other countries. He achieved an IM norm in 2002.
