Barry Crane (born Barry Cohen; November 10, 1927 – July 5, 1985) was a prolific television producer and director, and a bridge player who "won more titles than anyone else in the history of the game". According to the American Contract Bridge League (ACBL), he was "widely recognized as the top matchpoint player of all time" —the tournament format commonly played in private clubs. In 1985 Crane was murdered, a crime that was not solved until 2021.
