(Joyce Student Activity Day on May 2 ... · Tsunoda, Provost) • February 6, 1980 Harada, a real ·'wiz' By Martin Hironaga What do Cary Grant, Tony Curtis, Johnny Carson, Dick Cavett, Orson Welles, and Dean Harada have in common? They're all magicians, or were at one time or another. Dean Harada, who is coaching KCC's men's basketball this semester, is a polished hand manipulator and illusionist. Harada is in so much of a demand that his magic act· has taken him o

ff of this 'rock' a number of times. "I've done some shows in . Japan, all over the U.S., East Coast and West Coast. Magic took me over to Canada, too, he said." "I'm good friends with this Japanese magician;. he's a pro-. fessional' and travels all over. This .year I might go to Broad­way or, possibly, Europe." It's been five years since Harada first tried his h'and at the art of magic. Today, his i·nterest has blossomed into an entire act complete_ with snappy ship and ..original illusions. Ori­ ginality and showmanship, according to Harada, is the key ·to a successful act. "You gotta be different from the rest because there are a lot of standard effects that a lot of guys do. You got to be different, you got to have something extra, you got to be polished. Showman­ ship is half the battle especially on the stage." Harada works mostly with his hands and considers this aspect 'of magic the most difficult to master. · · ":Yo work with slight 9f·hand is the most -difficult, especially with round objects like coins and balls. "Angles are a problem, too. If you know that you're going to have an audience surrounding you then you can prepare for it. But I do all one-nighters­nosteady jobs-so you got to learn how to adjust. That's the hardest thing to do." On some of his trips Harada has met people all walks of · life: ·celebrities, entertainers, influential people. While in Washington, Harada met Amy Carter and appeared on a local newsbroadcast with her. In San Diego, Harada met Donny Osmond. When asked if Donny had the same set of brilliant white teeth, Harada replied, .. He looks really different in real life." Better of worse? "To me, worse." Harada, who was reluctant to reveal any of his trade secrets, did describe one of his 'big' illusions. "I have and illusion where a girl goes into a box, you poke swords in the box, you open the door and she's gone. Afterwards she comes back, but." Being ·a magician is clearly -Dean Harada's dream for the future; however, for the present he's .settling for the fringe benefits that his magic yields for him now. What are the fringe benefits? "I just get paid. That's the main thing. That's magic. Actually you get to meet a lot of different people from all over the world, and a lot of chicks! But the most important thing is self gratification."
