Magic History


Houdini is still today one of the ten most recognized celebrity names in the world.
John Braun was the 8 th. I.B.M. International President from 1946-1947
Eugene Bernstein was the 7 th. I.B.M. International President from 1942-1946
Although Houdini claimed to have been born on April 6, 1874 in Appleton, Wisconsin, he actually was born on March 24, 1874 in Budapest, Hungary. Recently discovered ship's logs indicate that the Weiss family moved to Appleton when Houdini was a toddler. The family came to America because of a job opportunity for Houdini's father, Rabbi Mayer Samuel Weiss, who became Appleton's first rabbi. While Houdini wasn't born in Appleton, he fondly referred to it as his hometown.
Dr. Richard O. Mossey was the 27 th. I.B.M. International President from 1965-1966
