Carisa Hendrix, aka "Lucy Darling" has been in the Guinness Book of World Records and Ripley's Believe it or Not for the record of holding a lit torch in her mouth. She has also been featured on Penn & Teller, has won a slew of awards and is the star of a documentary called "Girl on Fire." But her love of magic is so deep that she appreciates reactions that people make, despire themselves, to her shows more than standing ovations. And she's loved being on the road since nearly the start of her career. Smart, sexy with an amazing show and a strong queer following, Ms. Hendrix is living the life. Don Merrill talked with her about the state of magic today, including business and illusions, as well as asking what else she plan to conjure up in her future.
