But it's not just the top players who can enjoy Kasparov's presence. Kasparov will be giving a lecture on Saturday, April 4 at 3 PM, "My Life in Chess." The lecture will last about a half hour and will be followed by a Q+A session, "Ask Garry Kasparov." Ask Kasparov about anything from training methods, to his life in politics to how he stayed on top of the chess world for 20 years. The Q+A session is also open to parents and journalists. Be sure to bring your copies of My Great Predecessors, Life Imitates Chess and other Kasparov books to Nashville. Book signing and autograph sessions will take place on Friday, April 3 at 3 PM and Saturday, April 4, right after his lecture and Q+A. Kasparov's visit is in conjunction with the Kasparov Chess Foundation (KCF) and United States Chess Federation.
