I worked mainly in the school assembly field for over 50 years. Audiences ranged from Kindergarten through Senior high school. Sometimes in rural midwestern towns, I had K thru 12 audiences..In larger towns, I would have primaries (K-2 or K-3) elementaries (K - 6 or K-8) middle or Jr Highs (5-8 or 6 -9) Senior Highs (9-12 pr 10-12, occasionally 9). After I first auditioned for the assembly bureaus, I was never out of work. The bureau managers called me! I never kept a record, but, many many bookings were repeats. My old, and dear friend, J. B. Bobo, and I, compared notes on our last visit, and, we both estimated that we had done about 20,000 programs. the book has been favorably reviewed by David Seebach, in the May 2016 MUM, AND, Payne in the in the July 2016 MUM. The Linking Ring has not yet printed a review. The book is a few over 400 pages.

Saludos Mr. Oslund,
I'm contemplating making the transition to only doing school shows. I will add your book to my list.

Yes! Tony, Paul Gallico's "The Man Who Was Magic" is one of my favorite "magic fiction" books. I wish that it had been made into a movie!

I am hoping the rights might be up for grabs again at this stage. I would love to write that script. My vision is to get a number of prominent magicians to play the magical roles.

The Bobo Magic Show
One of the last living 10-in-one performers. I wanted to be in show business the worst way, and that was it.
