Nick Murphy is an avid chess player and an actor by profession. When he first toured Germany with a Shakespeare company, he also visited Hamburg and passed by the ChessBase office as a ChessBase user. But not everything is Shakespeare for an actor, so Nick Murpy has worked in many other areas as well. He has been on staff for London's Chess & Bridge shop. And for ChessBase users, he recorded video tutorials in which he explained the features of various Fritz program. 

Together with International Master Lorin D'Costa, Nick Murphy also recorded three "master & amateur" style DVDs.
