While in Egypt, I interviewed Michael Ammar about a variety of subjects: his first book, The Magic of Michael Ammar, and perhaps most importantly, a new book he's in the process of writing!

Michael Ammar looks like he's been hitting the gym 💪

Was thinking the same thing 😂

I hope they make the first print run big enough for all of us to buy a copy!

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

I'm betting it will be, but I know where you can go for the most up-to-date information 😃

I met Michael back in the 90s at a magic convention in New York

Great interview. Michael has always been a thinking magician. It would be great to see a new book from him.

Gotta love Michael Ammar! Great interview.

Absolutely - thanks, Dusty!

@johnvaughn385 Месяц назад

I bought his videos in the 90s and loved it!

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

The Easy to Master ones, or the Classic Renditions?

@johnvaughn385 Месяц назад

It’s been so long, it had the trick where you throw the card on the ceiling!

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

I think that was one of the Rendition tapes. So great!

@hmote Месяц назад

Enjoyed the interview but with so many cuts in the video I just had to listen. Audio is perfect 👍. His book was the second magic book I ever owned with the first one being Mark Wilson's big black book.

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

Wow, those are some great first books!

@alexandermagic1815 Месяц назад

I was blessed to meet Michael Ammar a few years ago when he came to do a lecture here in Miami.😊

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

He's incredibly nice!

@closerlookbooks Месяц назад

Great review. I am now 71 years old. I began studying magic at age 15. I recall thinking the same thing Michael said in believing some of what he read had to be fantasy…until I saw someone do it. I could not help but giggle. I also saw Michael perform at the Magic Castle a few times in the day. I have high regards for Michael. Thanks for posting. I look forward to the new book.

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

Isn't that great that magic helps make the impossible, possible, even for magicians!

@liamlenihan1328 Месяц назад

Great interview

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

Thanks!

@fog10101 Месяц назад

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

😄 yeah, with the 'devil goatee'. Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

@DavidRedfearn Месяц назад

It’s a wonderful book.

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

One of the best!

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

Haha, isn't that great??

@DaleBolender-ms7jl Месяц назад

Wow! Very nice!

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

Thank you!

@ScottRSmith1964 Месяц назад

I loved the ending! Way to go Jeff! Are you going to do a show about your trip? I would love that and it would be nice to know what goes on at a session. I love Magifest, I’m guessing I would love sessions. I might have to sell a few books to go. lol.

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

I don't plan to do an official erudite magic episode on my trip, but I will continue to address it in my newsletter. I'd love to see you attend one someday, Scott!

@ScottRSmith1964 Месяц назад

Thanks.

@user-gu4in3wk9x Месяц назад

I'm your Korean fan. I bought it after seeing various reviews including Ashwind's repertoire while looking at your reviews. I'm currently thinking about it, which one do you recommend more, Barry Richardson's "Theater of the mind" or "Act 2"? And as far as I know, there are two acaan versions, I wonder which one is more satisfying. Please introduce the characteristics of the two Acaan

@EruditeMagic Месяц назад

I don't think I can address that here, but feel free to shoot me an email or a DM via Instagram

This interview made me realize that magicians belong to one of the few artistic endeavours where many of the performers are also teachers and authors. Think about it, do most actors write books on how to act, do musicians write books on how to sing or play, do most authors write books on how to write. What famed magician hasn't written a book, I would say that number is relatively small.

@twatmunro Месяц назад

One of the things I like best about magic is how erudite magicians are. The good ones take their scholarship really seriously -- much more so than academics, who really mostly do it for money and status. Magicians always seem to me to be doing it out of love.

@jethro1963 Месяц назад

@@twatmunro Very true, I doubt a whole lot of them can live off their book sales.
