Genii, The Conjurors' Magazine is a magazine devoted to magic and magicians. It is a monthly magazine first published in September 1936, currently edited by Richard J. Kaufman and owned by Randy Pitchford . The magazine is based in Washington, DC.
History [ edit ]
Genii was founded by William Larsen, Sr. in 1936, and it was published as the official organ of the Pacific Coast Association of Magicians , which had been founded in 1933. The original print run was 750 copies, which went down to 500 for the second and third issues.[1] Upon Larsen's death in 1953 it was subsequently edited and published by his wife Gerrie Larsen , son William Larsen, Jr. and his wife Irene Larsen , grandson Dante Larsen , and granddaughter Erika Larsen . In 1998, it was sold to The Genii Corporation headed by magic author Richard Kaufman.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]
Genii appears as both a conventionally printed magazine and a digital edition, which includes audio and video supplements. Subscribers also receive free access to all 77 years of Genii' s back issues.
From March 1942–June 1947, M-U-M , the periodical of the Society of American Magicians , was published as part of Genii .[9]
In 2013, The Academy of Magical Arts , located at The Magic Castle in Los Angeles , started providing paid subscriptions of Genii to all of its magician members.[10]
Genii is the only magazine in the field of magic which regularly includes free DVDs with its issues, and has done so for many years.[11] [12] [13]
