Tom Harris
Borncirca 1894
DiedJuly 20, 1970 (age 75)

Tom Harris, a member of the Magic Circle (MMC), was known as the magical schoolmaster.[1]

As a member of the original Flying Sorcerers, he entertained American audiences at the combined IBM/SAM convention in 1950.

Hi act was performed in a mock-aggressive manner, abusing his audiences and helpers as he blamed them for everything that went wrong, in a purposely exaggerated form of his native Derby accent.

His friend Will Goldston left Harris his magical library.
