I read books about him over and over and dabbled in neighborhood magic shows and small feats of escape for local hospitals, schools and anyone who would take the time to watch. I recall driving my boyhood friends crazy, having them tie me up and watch me try different tricks.

I traveled to SF and covered a talk by Ken Silverman there.<br /><br />Also, I wouldn't say all the HH biopics were all awful. I rather like Houdini (1953) and The Great Houdinis (1976).

I wish there was a half decent movie made about him, but in my opinion, they were all awful.There will never be another like him, that's for sure.
