  2. I found it interesting in his bio he notes what no one else has in print has noted: the circular history of Houdini, the son of Hungarian Jewish immigrants, who was raised in poverty, but rose to worldwide fame and fortune, would later be played by himself, the son of Hungarian Jewish immigrants, who was raised in poverty, who also rose to worldwide fame and fortune.
