Thirty seconds with Lisa Close
This is the third in a series of "Thirty
seconds with ..." interviews, so called because I approached the
interviewees at Sorcerers Safari Magic and Performance Arts Camp last summer with the idea that I
would interview them for 30 seconds. It didn't always work that way.
Former professional magician Lisa Close is a Toronto, Ontario native who thinks about family when she thinks about Canada. She has a fondness for both camping and magic, so when she heard about Sorcerers Safari Magic and Performance Arts Camp (from chatting with Magic Mike Segal at The Browser's Den of Magic), she knew she had to try it out. Lisa has been a part of Sorcerers Safari for three years.
Her first memory of magic was when she was nine years old and her dad showed her a silk vanish. She hopes that the young magic enthusiasts won't forget the importance of reading about magic and learning from books. Her advice for aspiring magical youth: "Come to Sorcerers Safari!"
Lisa loves watching movies, especially comedies, when taking a break from magic.

To her, magic camp means reuniting with old friends, eating together and watching kids take to the whole experience.Lisa prefers "Harry Potter" to "The Lord of the Rings" and "Star Trek: The Next Generation" to "Star Wars."
