(1907-1942) (birthday February 22) 

Best known for his contributions to the art of mentalism, Ted Annemann was an extraordinary card magician as well. 

Born Theodore John Squires, Annemann was an extremely talented performer, but a very troubled person. 

His almost unbearable bouts of stage fright gave him an ironic advantage when performing mentalism. 

Sometimes he would be so upset that he would shake and break out into a sweat; his audiences thought that this was "proof" that he was putting forth incredible mental effort! 

Annemann was preparing an exhibition of the Bullet Catch when life became too much for him, and he committed suicide. 

Annemann is still very influential in magic, and copies of his long-running publication, The Jinx, are very collectible.

Many of his books on mentalism are still in print, as the routines

in them are still relevant and effective today.
