Michael J. Sherwin,
an American computer chess programmer, and stockbroker [1]. He is author of the WinBoard compatible chess engine RomiChess, which is famous for its learning approach [2]. Michael's interests in bitboards and methods to generate sliding piece attacks did result in his index based approach, coined by Harald Lüßen as Sherwin Bitboards, and more recently SISSY Bitboards, as applied in his new engine Bricabrac [3].
