There have been many great women magicians throughout history. It wasn’t easy for them, as women were seldom encouraged to be magicians, and magic clubs did not allow them to be members. The famous Magic Circle in London did not allow women members until 1991. Many have been lost to history.
This is an ongoing project with continuing research. My husband Geoff is a whiz with Photoshop so he’ll be contributing by digitally cleaning up a lot of photos. He says the images are mostly 1080P in resolution, which means they look great when cast on your TV.
If you have photos or information on women magicians of the past and would like to share them, let me know on my Contact page. We want to make this as extensive an archive as we can.
