Steve Cohen Interview S4 E2

Conversations With Close

Steve Cohen is a New York City-based magician whose show, Chamber Magic, has been running Off-Broadway for twenty years, first at the Waldorf Astoria New York, and, at present, in an exclusive salon in the Lotte New York Palace Hotel.

For decades, Steve has been researching and studying the life and magic of Max Malini. The result of that endeavour is a marvellous new book, Max Malini: King of Magicians – Magician of Kings. It is a must-buy for magic historians and close-up magic enthusiasts.

I spoke to Steve about his obsession with Malini, his search for the details of Malini’s life and magic, his association with director Guillermo Del Toro, and much more.
