Genii (magazine)
Genii, The Conjurors' Magazine is the largest selling magazine in the world devoted to magic and magicians. A monthly color glossy of over 100 pages, it is edited by Richard J. Kaufman. The magazine is based in Washington, DC.
History
Genii was founded by William Larsen, Sr. in 1936. Upon his death in 1953 it was subsequently edited and published by his wife Gerrie Larsen, son William Larsen, Jr. and his wife Irene Larsen, grandson Dante Larsen, and granddaughter Erika Larsen. In 1998, it was sold to The Genii Corporation headed by magic author Richard Kaufman.
It appears as both a conventionally printed magazine as well as a digital edition which includes both audio and video supplements to be viewed on both the user's computer and via apps on all electronic devices. Subscribers also receive free access to all 77 years of Genii's back issues.
In 2013, The Academy of Magical Arts, located at The Magic Castle in Los Angeles, started providing paid subscriptions of Genii to all of its magician members.
