Please join us Saturday, October 14th from 8 to 10 PM at Signia by Hilton, San Jose, California. On behalf of the NAME Foundation Board of Trustees, we would like to announce the eighth annual Saturday evening NAME Foundation fundraising event, to be presented in conjunction with the NAME Annual Meeting in San Jose, California. This year’s event focuses on deaths during magic performances, specifically the infamous Bullet Catch. The presenter will be our very own Dr. Reade A. Quinton and his presentation is entitled The Bullet Catch: The History of Magic’s Deadliest Illusion. Dr. Quinton is an Associate Professor of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota and a medical examiner for the Southern Minnesota Regional Medical Examiner's Office. In addition, Dr. Quinton is a member of the Society of American Magicians and the International Brotherhood of Magicians. In 2015, Dr. Quinton was awarded a Presidential Certificate from the Society of American Magicians for his services to the Society and the magic community.

Absolutely NO photography, videography or audio recordings will be permitted. Anyone in violation will be immediately escorted out of the building and their recording device will be confiscated.
The event will serve as an outreach fundraiser for the NAME FOUNDATION to help raise scholarship money for Forensic Pathology Fellows, Pathology Residents, and students to attend and make scientific presentations at the NAME Annual Meeting. As such, attendance at this event will be associated with a small donation and require pre-registration. Ticket donations are $10 for students and trainees, $20 for foundation members, $35 for non-members and $70 package for an additional one-year foundation membership and a ticket.
