MNW: THE LOST INTERVIEWS - DIETRICH & BROOKS

In 2009 I had the great privilege to interview one of the world's foremost female magicians and  escapologists, the great Dorothy Dietrich. She was the first woman to catch a bullet and the first woman to perform a straitjacket escape while suspended hundreds of feet in the air from a burning rope. She has been referred to as one of the "eight most noted magicians of the late twentieth century." Dick Brooks is a world class entertainer of both comedy and magic and to found FAME which later became the Society of Young Magicians within SAM. Together, they created New York's famous Magic Townhouse and gave many magicians their first job during the fifteen years that it was in operation. Brooks and Dietrich now operate the famous Houdini Museum in Scranton, PA. In addition to discussing their own careers, they share their memories of Presto shortly after his passing that year.
