Publisher's Summary

This unique biography details the life of magician Marshall Brodien, most remembered for his long-running career as television's Wizzo the Wizard on WGN-TV's Bozo's Circus. His inspirational story begins in the late 1940s, when Brodien was a young magician in his first job as a Chicago magic shop demonstrator, then recounts his steady rise to show-business success, including appearances on the legendary Mike Douglas Show, and as a nightclub hypnotist in Chicago's posh Cairo Supper Club. The work concludes with an examination of Brodien's career as one of the most successful marketers of magic sets in the U.S. 

This audiobook will appeal to anyone who appreciates a story about overwhelming determination and hard work. Brodien didn't take lemons and make lemonade. He took lemons and made lemonade stands. Whether you love gritty biographies or are a business person needing a new hero, The Magical Life of Marshall Brodien will take you where you need to go.
