Gisela Harum


Gisela Harum was an Austrian chess master.
She played four times in the Women's World Championship. She took 7th at London 1927, 3rd at Warsaw 1935, and tied for 17-20th at Stockholm 1937.
She was unable to participate at the Women's World Chess Championship 1933 in Folkestone due to financial reasons. Even though she was set to play, the Austrian Chess Federation Österreichischer Schachverband was unable to pay her expenses. The Olympiad team members of Austria also had to travel on their own cost but were able to collect enough money.
