Subject: Houdini

Did Mark Twain ever notice Harry Houdini?

There was some overlap in their residence in NYC.

I believe MT may have once appeared on a programme with many performers that included magician Harry Kellar, and so I wonder if there was ever a similar opportunity for that to have happened with the much younger Houdini?

Thank you,
Taylor
