Albert Forrest
(1903 - August 14th, 1979)
Albert Francis Drinkwater Forrest was a part-time magician, mentalist and author. Born in Airdrie, Scotland, he immigrated to the US in 1926. Settling in the New Brighton, Pennsylvania area, Albert helped establish the Beaver Valley Ring of the International Brotherhood of Magicians in 1931. A few years later, Forrest authored his one and only book for the profession, The Eighth Wonder. Albert and his wife, Margaret, moved to Glendale, California in the early 1960s, where he sold insurance.
