Today we explore the life of Houdini's brother, Theodore, known professionally as HARDEEN. He had a very strong career, duplicating many of his famous brothers feats, but also doing many unique things of his own. 
Prepare for an extremely informative podcast on Houdini's Library which resides in the Harry Ransom Center in Austin Texas. Also, Dr. Eric Colleary, the curator of the exhibit has a new book out, also called Houdini's Library.  Pay close attention, you'll learn a lot. And forgive me for saying Smithsonian, instead of Library of Congress. I was having a senior moment, lol. I know the difference and have been to both!  
Magic historian, collector, author, Charles Green is my guest today talking about his book, Exposing Houdini. He shares some things here that you won't find on any other interview, anywhere.  Copies of the book are still available at ExposingHoudini.com
