These days Olmedini has lost some weight and is looking trim and debonaire. There’s a spring in his step!

Since the publication of my photographs in the NY Times, TV crews from around the world have done features on the 78 year old, blind magician.

Most recently it was TV Globo Brazil shooting for their program “Fantastico”, which according to them, has an audience of 100 million people. And before them, Telemundo Miami and national channels from Russia, Colombia, Spain and France.

The international fame, which had eluded Olmedini for so many years has finally arrived! Big things are on the horizon and this late-in-life blooming is so beautiful to witness.
