Here's a trivial Houdini fact...
I was doing some research and came across a document that listed Bess Houdini's address in 1936 as 1616 North Curson Ave in Hollywood, Ca. Here is what it looked like in 2012. It is listed on Zillow http://www.zillow.com/homedetails/1616-N-Curson-Ave-West-Hollywood-CA-90046/20794260_zpid/
Bess Houdini died from a heart attack on February 11, 1943 while in Needles, California, aboard an eastbound train traveling from Los Angeles to New York City.
Indeed! That was were Bess and Ed Saint lived for a few years in Hollywood. It's a great looking little house. I drive past it often.
