7. Megan Knowles-Bacon Breaks Gender Lines
Megan Knowles-Bacon has been performing magic since she was a child, and was always surprised to find she was the only girl in the various magic clubs she joined. Although it was often daunting and lonely for her, she kept with her craft and eventually became the first ever female officer of the Magic Circle. Though the organization has been around over 100 years, Knowles-Bacon’s appointment as secretary broke gender barriers, especially considering she still gets confused for an assistant when she performs her shows. She hopes her new role in the Magic Circle will encourage more girls to perform magic and stop the discrimination against them.
