Front cover of the Symbol Magic Magazine. Bruce Kalver, the editor, wrote a wonderful article.
Being on the front page of the newspaper was really cool. The first time I saw myself in the paper, my eyes swelled up with tears. I was so happy. Mom said I grinned from ear to ear all week. My friends and family were so proud. Kids at school thought I was a celebrity.
What People Are Saying
You have maturity far, far beyond your years....You are one of the rising stars in the young adult community of magic.
Many folks sitting around me commented about good things to come from this young man in the future?
ReyRey Puentes - Texas
"Congrats on your successes! A lot of us "old guys" have great expectations of you. You make us proud."
Bob Sanders
Hey fellows, don’t let the age fool you, this guy is "The Man." He’s the one we will be watching on TV before long. Move over big stars.
Tom Boleware
You are one very promising young man and I have just finished reading the
article in The Linking Ring telling about you. It was the first time that I
knew what I would read before I begin to read the Linking Ring.
The number of your awards is the messenger of the new ones to come soon. I wish I could have seen your act but I feel I have enough experience to smell the talent. I really enjoy to know someone to be a world star during his beginning days.
TORA (OZLEN TUNCER) - IZMIR / TURKEY
It is absolutely amazing the progress you are making in magic!
A tip of my hat to you! Stay the course, sir!
Michael Baker - Birmingham, AL
My acting teacher wrote this. I have a great time there. Many wonderful people.
