Dorothy Young, the last surviving stage assistant of illusionist Harry Houdini, has died, reports the Associated Press. She was 103.

Young’s death was announced Wednesday by Drew University, where the accomplished dancer was a prominent donor and patron of the arts. Drew spokesman Dave Muha said she died Sunday at her home in a Tinton Falls, N.J., retirement community.

Young joined Houdini’s company as a teenager and appeared in “Radio Girl of 1950.”
