Marvyn "Mr. Electric" Roy Reminisces at MAGIC Live! Over The Years

106190756_905302443282506_3068167890144041610_n.jpg

Although Marvyn Roy (aka “Mr. Electric”) didn’t sit down with me for a proper conversation to post as a full episode, I was able to put together three separate conversations I had with him at MAGIC Live! conventions. The first was in 2013, the next in 2016 and the last one was in 2017. Marvyn loved magic and he loved magicians. I believe that is what kept him going and kept him alive for 95 years.

WWII Purple Heart Recipient. Marvyn Roy is the namesake of Marvyn's Magic Theater in La Quinta California now open!

377: Day Four - 2017 MAGIC Live!

Final day of MAGIC Live! filled with more sessions and conversations with friends. One of the best things about this convention is the opportunities to visit with old friends and make new ones. Certainly that can be said about all magic conventions, but because this one is during the weekdays, more professionals can attend because they are usually working on weekends.
