Harry Lorayne - The Secret of Having a Good Memory - interview - Goldstein on Gelt - Dec. 2010

[@berniebernstein7613]

After coming across a NYT article today on memory, I suddenly recalled Lorayne from a 1975 book about super memory. At over 70 now I have this overwhelming need to reread it. If I can find it. Because it worked back then. Anything might help these days. It certainly can't hurt -- like a spanking.

Harry's system makes giving effective speeches very easy, because you never ever need notes, and you have confidence that you have the outline and facts handy.

Harry Lorayne had dyslexia and overcame this with memory systems, he is the best!

[@mynameisericm]

I have read tons of books - The Memory Book is one of my favorites

[@DouglasGoldsteinCFP]

I think you're right Eric. Harry was really the first guy to teach all the methods people need to dramatically improve their memory. My favorite book of his is "Page-a-Minute Memory."

I have a book of his Memory Mastery

[@billyraybar]

Harry popularized the mnemonic major memory system. For that, I give him credit. Check out my channel for an introduction to the system and also a practical example: remembering dates.

Unfortunate that he had to downgrade Jerry Lucas that way. Most of us would recognize that Lorayne was the senior author of "The Memory Book", and Lucas was a sort of color-commentator and publicity figure for that book, but it did the job well, it demonstrated that Lorayne's methods did work, and that Lucas was a successful practitioner of them. But Googling "Jerry Lucas" "basketball" ~120,000 hits "Harry Lorayne" "magic" ~60,000 "Harry Lorayne" "memory" ~60,000 ...shows that Lucas has become the more historically secure of the two as far as the internet is concerned, inasmuch as the twin skills of Lorayne are going to return many overlapping hits.
