The fourth and final post in a short series of answers to those true or false questions asked in the post "How well do you know me?"

Question twelve: True or False?

The person behind the curtain at Canada's Magic has created and marketed at least one original magic effect.

I'm grateful to Harry Anderson for his permission to follow through with the idea. I'm also grateful to Jeff McBride for his encouragement. Special thanks to the folks who lent their support for the final product: Dan Morrissey, Richard Olsen, Tony Eng, Jeff Pinsky, and Murray Hatfield.

Question thirteen: True or False?

The person behind the curtain at Canada's Magic has been involved in the magic community for more than 10 years.

Review: Murray Celebrity Magician

Read Wayne Kawamoto's review at About:

From his TV appearances on "Pawn Stars," and “America’s Got Talent,” and from his trademark mop of blonde hair to those designer glasses, you may think that you know Murray the magician (aka the Celebrity Magician).
