From the March 11th Facebook post by the Browser's Den of Magic:
We would like to formally announce the winner of the 2021 Len Cooper Memorial Award, Kevin Hamdan!
This marks the first time (since we started the award back in 2003) that a mentalist has won (so I guess he knew he was going to win, right?)

From the March 4th Instagram post by Magic Tips and Tricks:
Not just a pretty face. I just launched my new podcast; Theory & Thoughts for Magicians. Best thing about it? It's short! Less listening, more doing.
From the March 2nd post "10 Questions with Carisa Hendrix" by Neil McNally at The Doug Henning Project:
Today ‘s special guest is renowned magician Carisa Hendrix. Along with her alter ego, Lucy Darling, Hendrix has taken the magic world by storm over the last ten years. Awarded the 2019 Stage Magician of the Year by the AMA, Hendrix continues to breathe new life into magic through innovation and comedy.
If that weren’t enough, Carisa is a huge admirer of Doug and his work. So, with that in mind, I asked her to answer ten questions regarding Doug, his costumes, and everything in between. So, without further ado, Carisa Hendrix!
