Harry August Jensen, better known as Dante, was born in Copenhagen, Denmark in 1883 and grew up to be one of the greatest magicians of the 20th century. Not only did he lay the groundwork for future colleagues with his trademark fantasy phrase “sim sala bim”, which he used in each performance, but Dante was also one of the first illusionists to travel with an entourage of over 20 artists.
