thank you so much Diana! I'm thrilled we are able to include Mary onto our channel, she is so worthy. I'm grateful to David & Elliott for allowing us to include their footage. It's a beautiful collaboration
@@JEREMYMAGICTV Mary knows magic and entertainment front to back. How fortunate she shared her knowledge with you. She must have noted something special!
You are 100% correct. This video and award was posted in the spring of the year Gloria Dea was discovered by Lance Rich & AnnaRose Einersen. Up until that discovery it was believed that Jack Kodell was possibly the first magician to appear in Las Vegas. Coincidentally David Copperfield presented the award to Mary Kodell and he also was one of the first magicians to meet and celebrate Gloria Dea in Las Vegas in her late nineties.
ciao Glyn, I adore Mary, just thinking of her, I smile. She is a true "fire-cracker" and a Grand Dame, I am thrilled we were able to post this upload. I first met her & Jack in the early '90's in Vegas, they came to see one of my performances. I've always loved and respected them greatly.
I am thrilled to feature Mary Naylor Kodell onto our channel, she holds a special place in my heart and is truly remarkable at 95 years young!!
Wonderful to see this... I spoke to Mary only once. This was almost 10 years ago if I recall
Thank you, Connie! I am SO glad that you sent me the link to this.
This is sooo awesome. And so important. The interiewing by David is beyond fabulous. And Mary is absolutely stunning.

Based on other videos on this channel, Gloria Dea was the first magician to perform in Las Vegas.

@@MagicalWomenwithConnieBoyd, cool.
David!
What a trouper, and sharp as a tack at 95. I love that she thought David Copperfield "had promise"!
