John mulholland (1898-1970) edited the magician's magazine the sphinx for 23 years, ending the publication to be consultant to the newly born cia in 1953. His assignments included working with billionaires and inventors, cracking codes and delving into the clandestine world of eps research, lsd use and the secret mk-ultra world headed by the notorious dr. Sidney gottlieb. During this period, cia dr. Frank oslon died the day after thanksgiving, 1953.
