Does anyone remember a magician about 30 + years ago who used to do a
fantasitic routine with Parakeets. I remember him from Ed Sullivan and
maybe a cover of Genii Magaizine... was his name Johnney Hart... just trying
to remember. Anyone knows whatever happened to him and his name for sure?
The birds seemed to adore him thru the routine.

Oh, Hoh, Hoh, Hoh, Hoh! You are correct, Sir!

It is Johnny Hart you are thinking of -- wonderful performer.

Mistakes like that are for the birds.

The magician's name you are looking for is Paul Fiddler. He had a popular act
in the 70's and worked in Vegas...I don't know what happened to him, but I can
find out...one of my employee's daughters is married to him. E-Mail me if you
want any more information.
