Magician Steve Cohen Astonishes Students in the World Religions Class
Legendary magician (and Dalton parent) Steve Cohen visited students in their senior elective on World Religions co-taught by Jennifer Stolper Muenz and Kevin Slick.
During his visit, Mr. Cohen discussed how magicians have historically explored the nexus between religion and magic and continue to demonstrate the impossible by making the unreal look real. After a riveting talk about the way in which contemporary magic serves as a burlesque of science, Mr. Cohen wowed the class with a magic trick that left everyone in a state of wonder and disbelief.
