There's no real Beth Harmon. the story of The Queen's Gambit is entirely fictional based on a novel of the same name by author Walter Tevis; a chess player himself. Although the serie and novel are fictional, it is inspired by real life events and Beth and Beth's journey was modeled after several grandmasters of chess such as Fischer, Spassky and Karpov.

This series is based on a fiction novel. So, pretty sure there is no Beth Harmon. Also, the woman on the right is Vera Menchik, as written in the tag. Completely different chess player.

Pretty sure there is no "real beth harmon", from what I can tell that story is based on bobby fisscher.
