About the author

W. J. (William J.) Judd

A 19th-century writer and editor who moved easily between popular entertainment and practical showmanship, best known for a lively book on Punch and Judy. His surviving works suggest a hands-on figure in New York’s theatrical and magic world, writing for performers as much as for curious readers.
