The
Perfection of Deception
A Lecture by Harry Maurer
On January 25, 2012 Harry Maurer presented a scholarly lecture to an enraptured audience of nearly 200 people at the Lone Stat College CyFair which is just north of Houston, Texas.
Harry's 50 minute talk was enlightening, insightful, fresh and entertaining. He spoke about Jean Eugene
Robert-Houdin and how he squelched a rebellion and prevented a war, Houdini acting as a spy for the British, John
Mullholland writing the Deception Manual for the C.I.A. (Central Intelligence Agency), John Nevil Maskelyne whose
"Magic Gang" successfully cloaked tanks, militia and entire cities during World War II, and much, much more.
Harry is a proud member of Toastmasters and attributes some of his speaking skills to this fine organization.
Though as a successful magician and internationally recognized, professional magician who holds a theatre degree,
Toastmasters is only the "gravy" on his long time successful stage career.
Harry plans to present this lecture to any organization who would like to book him. For more informaion on Harry
