Leonard Nimoy dead at 83

Postby erdnasephile » February 27th, 2015, 2:21 pm

OK, so as far as I know Mr. Nimoy was not a magician.

However...

1. I'll bet he helped inspire more than a few of us to pursue our current career choice.
2. We've probably all used the "transporter" motif at least once in our magic presentations.

And last, but not least...

3. He played one on TV. (on an episode of Mission Impossible)

RIP, Mr. Nimoy.

Nimoy also hosted the In Search of series back in the 1970s that devoted an episode to Houdini's secrets. John Cox at his Wild About Harry website details this episode:
