One of 7 children, Erik Weisz was born to a Jewish family on March 24, 1874, in Budapest. Four years later, his family emigrated to the USA – settling in Wisconsin. At the age of 9, he made his public debut as a trapeze artist. At 17 years-old, he decided to become a professional magician and changed his name to Harry Houdini. He was considered a ‘competent’ … albeit, not particularly great magician. That said, he became extremely proficient at escaping from handcuffs. When Harry was 25, Martin Beck (who would become his manager) encouraged him to focus on escape acts. This decision would catapult him to international fame! Over the next 20 years Houdini became one of the world’s highest paid entertainers … as he freed himself from jail cells, handcuffs, chains, ropes, and straitjackets! From the humblest of beginnings, Houdini said the happiest day of his life was when he purchased a dress, originally said to have been made for Queen Victoria – and gave it to his mother!
