Rory Feldman
Executive Director, Museum of Magic
Rory,
I am very excited about the prospect of the Museum of Magic being
located in Brooklyn, a very natural place for it to be. During
its 106 year, the Society of American Magicians (founded in NYC) has
had many ties with our borough, Many great magicians had their homes
here and Coney Island was the mecca of magic with stars such as
Harry Houdini, Jean Hugard, Al Flosso, Sam Marglies and Dai Vernon
among others having performed there. The Brookyn Academy of Music was
the venue for some our great shows and Hardeen, Hugard, Dr. Hooker and
others chose to live in Brooklyn .
If I can help this wonderful project in any way, please let me
know.
I hope that your museum will bring tourists to our rich and
cultural borough. I am proud to be a resident.
George Schindler
Dean
Society of American Magicians.
