The Enchanting Story of Richard Potter
Richard Potter was America's First Famous Black American Magician and Ventriloquist who settled in part of Andover, NH, that later became known as Potter Place. I grew up in a town near Potter Place and had never heard about him. So about 20 years ago, I became obsessed with reading anything I could about Richard. My original thought was to do a children's book about him, but his life was a bit tragic, so it is for older adults. Richard was world reknowned for his ventriloqism and magic skills, but because of the color of his skin, faced many tough times. My book is available at Amazon.com
