Richiardi was one of the best illusionists that ever was....I was a young man in the Bahamas when he worked with my father in the Le Cabaret Theater on Paradise Island. His stage presence and performances were incredible...he is an illusionist which anyone that studies the art of magic is familiar with. I was present during his untimely death due to Gangrene........ He lives on in many fans memories......
You can find a video of some of his work here
