most famous entertainers to have ever lived. When he was four,
little Ehrich emigrated with his family from Hungary to the USA.
Although they had reached a world of great opportunity, the family

young age. When he was just nine, Ehrich worked as a trapeze
artist, and this experience led him into a life of entertainment.
As he grew older, Ehrich continued to play to audiences with
fascinating card tricks. But when working as a locksmith by day and
