Joseph Deodato came to America to perform in 1866. He performed in pantomime or was assisted by his son as a translator. [1]

Part of his act include sword swallowing (which he gave up for a time when he hurt himself after coughing while the sword was still in) and producing yards of colored paper and a brass rod from his mouth after eating burning paper.[2]

He played at the Carnegie Lyceum on March 26, 1912.[3]
