Now we move to the next category of the Allan Slaight Awards for Magic: Sharing Secrets. This award recognizes exceptionally creative and innovative work in the study of magic, and comes with an engraved iPad and a prize of $10,000 from the Slaight Family Foundation. In the past, we have honoured the achievements of Mike Caveney, Richard Kaufman, John Lovick and the College of Magic in South Africa. This year, the award goes to a past recipient...
It took over two decades, but RICHARD KAUFMAN did it. Amazingly, after completing his opus Tenyoism in 2015 (for which he received his first Allan Slaight Award for Sharing Secrets), Richard found the drive and commitment to complete his effort on the long-in-development book, DeLand: Mystery and Madness.
Discover more from the video above, about Richard’s great journey to bring this book from far-reaching dream to a weighty book of reality.
MORE TO COME
And tomorrow, we reveal who takes the title as a wonder sharer for 2019!
