Keidanski was born in Großendorf, West Prussia (now Władysławowo, Poland), he came to Berlin where he participated in many chess tournaments in the 1890s. He tied for 8-9th at Cologne in 1898 (the 11th DSB Congress, Hauptturnier A, Ottokar Pavelka won), took 2nd, behind Julius Finn, at New York City in 1903, and tied for 5-6th at New York State Chess Association in 1907.[2]
