I became a go-to consultant on Hollywood projects, including for Francis Ford Coppola. 12. I taught some of my techniques to Robert Redford. 13. I am the only magician ever to have been profiled in PBS's American Masters. 14. One of several books I authored is entitled “Learned Pigs & Fireproof Women”. 15. I collaborated on several projects with Michael Weber, including The Prestige, The Illusionist, Oceans Thirteen, and many more. |

I actually met him and hung out at a wild party thrown for him at a NYC recording studio! Sam Kinison.

I was invited up on stage with him during a performance of "52 assistants." Kim Delaney and Stephen Bochco were in the audience that night too.

Thanks Alan! For the record, the party had Leslie West playing guitar, and (as was common in those days) there was an abundance of white powder available.
I'll let someone else jump in. If no one obliges, I'll think of something later tonight. |

No takers? Alrighty then:
1. I was born in 1899 in Washington, D.C. 2. As a child, I was more interested in baseball than what became my chosen profession. 3. President Teddy Roosevelt would come by on his horse sometimes, and stop and watch me and my friends play. |
