James Jacoby

James Oswald Jacoby (April 4, 1933 – February 8, 1991) was an American bridge player and writer. He played as Jim Jacoby but he wrote books as James and for many years co-wrote a syndicated bridge column with his father as "Jacoby on Bridge" by Oswald and James Jacoby. (He wrote a re-branded newspaper bridge column after his father's death.)

He won 16 "national" (ACBL) championships, first at age 22 in 1955, and he was the most successful ACBL tournament player (s leader) during 1988.
