THIS MONTH ISSUE
A FEW WORDS FROM THE CHIEF EDITOR
As I was about to upload this edition of VANISH word came in that Milt Larsen had passed away . I reached out to Nick Lewin , who had known Milt for over forty years and asked him to write a tribute . Nick has penned a fitting tribute to his dear friend and thank you to those who supplied wonderful photos . I stayed up late to get this done for the June edition but felt it important to include .
Guy Cater is a mentor and close friend from New Zealand . He taught me more about show-business than anybody else , and it is an honor to finally feature him and celebrate his lifetime of performing .
Jeanette Andrews is another featured artist this month and is breaking grounds in magic not seen before . She first appeared in our Science special and I felt a follow up was needed . She is one of the new stars of our business .
Finally , I ' d like to welcome Jordana Borensztajn to the Vanish team . She is one of the most dynamic and articulate people I ' ve met , and as a stand-up comedian , journalist , podcaster , key-note speaker and magician she will be bringing A LOT to the magazine . I ' m so excited to have her in VANISH .
