It's Rainy Day Rabbit Holes story time, with professor of Pacific Northwest history Michael Sullivan. Michael leads us on a journey through the spellbinding world of Ray Gamble, Tacoma's own millionaire magician, and uncovers the captivating story behind Gamble's rise to fame and fortune.
Michael Sullivan taught Pacific Northwest history for 23 years as well as historic preservation, at University of Washington Tacoma. He's a writer, a historian, and the chairman of the board of History Link.
Ray Gamble is a character that can almost be viewed as a representation of the city of Tacoma. From humble beginnings he pulled himself up by his boot straps to become wildly successful, and was a larger-than-life character who is shrouded in mystique, even to this day. Kind of like Tacoma.
