Veteran comedy magician Lee Allen is featured in the Friday
Jan. 15 issue of the Bergen Record. Allen, who first worked in Atlantic City in early
1960s, probably holds the record for appearing in more shows there than anyone else. This
past weekend he opened for the Pointer Sisters at Trump Plaza where he explained that he
first discovered a knack for comedy, which he blended with his magic when an agent said,
'Get rid of all those birds ... you're a funny guy! He estimates that he does more than
200 shows a year and doesn't foresee cutting back anytime soon. To read the entire article
