| Al Hillman (Jun. 24, 1917-Jul. 21, 2002) died on Sunday Jul. 21 at the age of 85. Hillman was a very popular New Jersey magician who once owned a bar where he occasionally performed magic and frequently told jokes. He has won a number of awards for his "drunk" stage act and received many honors from local magic organizations. He is best remembered as one of the directors of JMMRT (John McNicholas Magic Round Table), which has been running monthly magic lectures since the late 1950s. Until very recently Hillman continued to book and entertain all the lecturers. His joke telling and barroom humor never left him. He always greeted people with his latest jokes and could never hang-up the phone before making you laugh. He was also a good friend of many of the New York magicians of the last century.
