Biography of Chess Buntar originates on March 9, 1943. The boy was born in Chicago, where Mother Bobby, Regina Fisher, moved from Moscow, where he received medical education. Officially, the father of the child was the German biologist Hans-Gerhard Fisher, but before the birth of the Son of the spouse did not live together for a long time.
Biographers argue that the Bobby's Biological Parent can be a Jewish mathematician Paul Nenoye, who showed a lot of participation in raising a child. Since the mother of Bobby was a representative of the Semitic people, the future opponent of the Jews himself belonged to Jewish nationality.
