Harry Houdini (* 24. März 1874 als Erik Weisz in Budapest, Österreich-Ungarn; † 31. Oktober 1926 in Detroit, Michigan) war ein US-amerikanischer Entfesselungs- und Zauberkünstler.
Houdini introduced his escape from a giant milk can filled with water in St. Louis in 1908. That same year he took the wildly popular new feat on tour in the United States, England, and Germany.

New York Hippodrome. Postcard image of the famous New York Hippodrome theater. Harry Houdini (Hungarian-American illusionist and stunt performer) had the longest continuous engagement in one theater of his career here -- 19 weeks -- when he starred in the review Cheer Up! in 1918. The theater closed in 1939. A modern office building now occupies the site at 1120 Avenue of the Americas.
