“No greater honor can be bestowed upon an individual than to be recognized as a leader by one’s peers.”
George Saterial has become the first and only magician ever to receive the highest honor, the “Gold Medal Awards” from both the International Brotherhood of Magicians and the Society of American Magicians. It’s very rare that either award is given. In twenty years, they have been granted only seven times combined.
George received both honors the same year.
