Your Hosts
Larry Cohen is ranked one of the Top 10 Living Most Influential Bridge Personalities and in 2020, he was elected into the ACBL Hall of Fame. He has been dedicated to the game since earning his Life Master at 17. He is the author of numerous articles, ABTA award-winning books, software, audio CDs and teaching DVDs.
Michael Berkowitz hated bridge right up until he loved it. With two World Champion bridge players as parents, conversations at the dinner table often evolved into bridge. Michael didn’t get serious about bridge until after college. He worked as a teacher and director at Honors Bridge Club in New York City, and became the Head Director for both Aces and Cavendish Bridge clubs. He’s known as New York’s most-loved director for his friendliness, quick wit, and compassion. Larry Cohen, recognizing Michael’s natural teaching abilities, added him as a valuable member of the “Bridge with Larry Cohen” travel and teaching team where he has earned the respect and appreciation of his students.
