How Did you first become interested in Magic?<\/b>
\nEarliest memory is at a restaurant in Clearwater, Florida when I was 6. A gentleman who seemed very old to me at the time was looking in my direction and pushing a cigarette into one ear and out the other. When he tired of that he ate it. I was dumbfounded! My mother was less impressed.<\/p>\n

Background:<\/b>
\nFrom the age of 6 to 12 I lived and breathed magic, doing tricks for my sister’s birthday party, at school, etc. Apparently, I peaked at 12 when I won the above-mentioned talent show and it has been downhill ever since. In 1986 I met Bob Carter and when he learned of my interest in magic he invited me to a ring meeting (which I did attend), but I was just starting grad school at UT and didn’t feel I had the time to pursue it.<\/p>\n

I continued to collect magic books throughout the years and would drop in on a magic shop whenever I happened upon one. One day in the summer of 2009 in Gatlinburg I found former Ring 58 member Scott Compton’s magic shop, and he encouraged me to (once again) visit Ring 58. After paying for a couple of lectures I was hooked and joined Ring 58 (and the IBM) in November 2009.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
