NM Dana Mackenzie started playing tournament chess during the “Fischer boom” of 1971-72 and never quit. Champion of North Carolina in 1985, 1987, and became a master in 1988. He has a 1-0 career record against world chess champions. (The champion in question was the world computer champion, Belle, which Dana defeated in the 1983 U.S. Amateur Team Championship.)
