Clifford Porter Norton (June 14, 1886 - August 1964), born and raised in Chicago was a professional magician in the Chicago area.

Norton first became interested in magic in the fall of 1900 after seeing Harry Kellar at the McVicker's theater.

Mr. Norton's first appearance in public was at 15 for a church function in Chicago on May 23, 1901. Soon after, he began a successful career. During the summer of 1905 he also worked with Jack Burch.

He later moved to San Jose where he was member of the Mystic Thirteen.
