I just got a phone call and was told that the magician that bought the rights to all my DVDs,David Alexander died yesterday.I was told he just dropped and was dead before he reached the hospital.He seemed like a really healthy person so this is a total shock to me.Don't have any other information at this time.

Not sure what will to happen to my DVDs.I'll keep you all informed when I hear more.

Later,Don

David Alexander, Chicago? Magician, mentalist and author? He used to live around here. One of the original Long Beach Mystics. Would see him every now and then at the magic shop. Brilliant guy. Sorry to hear.

This is very bad news, a real shame.

David was a really nice guy. He did a fine job of putting a great package together of Don's Svengali Pitch DVD, an accompanying booklet and an extra DVD of an interview with Don. I corresponded with David and contributed to the booklet, and thought the end result was very handsome.

Hopefully the Svengali Pitch package will be picked up by someone else and continued. SETH
