Remembering our colleague David “Baldini” Grosfield, who passed away suddenly last weekend. Baldini was a force of nature. His enthusiasm for magic - and for life - filled the room from the moment he walked in and there was no hiding from it.
We worked together several times over the years. He performed and hosted on shows that I produced and was a master networker who was often able to find just the right venue for whatever our next project was.
He went on to host a long-running series of performances at the Ontario Science Center presenting on The Science of Magic. Those later spun off into a series of extracurricular workshops offered to schools through the GTA. In addition to performing and teaching magic, he also had a profound impact mentoring a number of young performers.
His influence and enthusiasm will be deeply missed.
