Magician of the Year
The Salute to Magic is the event at which the Parent Assembly presents its annual Magician of the Year honor. This year's honoree is Jerry Oppenheimer. Oppenheimer has been a member of the Assembly for more than 44 years and has served the New York club in many capacities including President, Secretary and Editor of the Spellbinder newsletter. During his career as a court reporter, he was known as the "Court Magician," performing for judges, attorneys, and felons. At age 93, today Oppenheimer is a regular at the Magic Table lunch gatherings where he keeps his fellow magicians entertained with magic, stories, and quips.
