Описание: This award is quite special. It acknowledges an exceptional commitment to magic through the dedicated efforts of an individual over a lifetime. The Lifetime Achievement award also comes with a prize of $15,000 and an engraved iPad to commemorate the occasion—courtesy of the Slaight Family Foundation.

After celebrating emerging artists earlier in the week, we now turn our gaze to those who have devoted long years as the builders and champions of magic.

It is a great honour to now include British television producer, author, collector and historian, JOHN FISHER, to this special group of magic makers.

As you will see, John’s brilliant career as a television producer, consultant, historian and writer is beyond staggering. He really is a magic genius. As we make a sweep across his many achievements, you will see some of the monumental efforts that John has made to advancing the art of magic. His deep devotion to magic is remarkable and, indeed, quite inspiring.
We are honoured to present John Fisher with the Allan Slaight Lifetime Achievement award.
