Here is link to the Wikipedia article on him. Ironically the last remaining member of his troupe of assistants Dorothy Young died the other day.
His wife Willamina Beatrice Houdini Known as "Bess" was also his stage assistant . They had no children which is very sad I think. Houdini was Jewish Bess was Catholic. Interesting huh?
