Adelaide Herrmann Lecture
Adelaide Herrmann (1853-1932) was the first great female magician. My lecture accompanies my book, Adelaide Herrmann, Queen of Magic - Memoirs, Published Writings and Collected Ephemera, and contains many beautiful images from some of the world's greatest magic collections. As part of my presentation, I also perform some of Madame Herrmann's classic illusions.
