Theodore Annemann

Annemann
Theodore ‘Ted’ Annemann was an American mentalist born in 1907.

He is probably best know for his definitive book on mentalism “Practical Mental Effects”, a book often criticised for being old fashioned but containing the secrets behind the effects many mentalists still use today.

He was a very troubled man and committed suicide in 1942 prior to an indoors performance of his famous bullet catch.
