“The
Magic Guy (Jamie O’Hara) is a
lot of fun”
— It
may be a bunny or a magic book that Jamie O’Hara will pull out of
his magician’s hat Friday when the Portales Public Library
kicks-off its summer reading program. O’Hara, who calls himself
“The Magic Guy,” has been practicing magic since he was 7
years old. Portales Public Library children’s librarian Stephanie
