J. B. Bobo


J. B. Bobo was a magician most known for his work and writing in the arena of coin magic.
His work entitled Modern Coin Magic is still considered today to be a core reference by most magicians.
He also wrote Watch This One!, a collection of magical effects performable with small objects.
He once disappointed a young Marty Loschen due to having a car accident while attempting to drive to a show at Howell Elementary in Springhill, La.
Bobo's great-grandfather was Jean Beaubeaux who, when immigrating to America, was induced to spell his name 'Bobo', a phonetic transliteration of the French Beaubeaux into English.
