Steve Beam has
been inventing, performing, and teaching card magic for over thirty
years.
In addition to authoring more than 25 books, he edited and
published The Trapdoor.
This underground journal of magic spanned fifteen years and 1500
pages which, by Steve's
own calculations, averages out to almost 900 pages a year!
Steve lives with his long-suffering bride and three daughters (the
resident card-pickers),
along with thousands of decks of cards in Cary, North Carolina -
the thimble capitol of the
world.
