CBA WINTER BRIDGE CLASS ANNOUNCEMENT
In
addition to excellent offerings from Nancy, Linda, Amy and Joe we
are announcing
a new beginners series on Saturdays by Potter. A free lecture
precedes a supervised game. See flyer for details.
Pam & Matthew Granovetter
For
the past 30
years, Matthew and Pam Granovetter have been one of the most successful
husband-wife duos in high-level bridge. They each have won numerous
North
American Bridge Championships, and Matthew won the World Mixed Pairs in
2006
with Karen McCallum. They moved to the Cincinnati area in 2005 from
Israel,
where they lived for 12 years and where they raised their three
children. The
Cincinnati Bridge Association had a chance to “sit down” and conduct a
virtual
interview with Matthew and Pam via e-mail. Click Here for the interview
