Jack Ryan, past president of the Society of American Magicians in Boston and a performer for more than 50 years, gives an illustrated talk on Harry Houdini, showing over 100 images, most from private collections. It covers Houdini's lives beyond magic, as escape artist, pilot, film star, author, inventor and debunker of spiritualists. Ryan demonstrates mind reading, and a Q&A follows.
