David Tobias "Theodore" Bamberg (aka Fu Manchu) (1904-1974) was an itinerant magician that traveled with his full evening magic show from the early to mid part of the 20th century. In Bamberg's autobiography, Robert Parrish wrote in the introduction that no other great illusionist could match David's skill. The Fu Manchu show was known for comedy, drama, and a plethora of color.

David was the sixth and final member of the Bamberg Magical Dynasty. They were a Dutch family of conjurers whose magical lineage was passed from each of the first born sons. His father was Tobias "Theo" Leendert Bamberg (Okito), son of David Tobias Bamberg (1843-1914). Okito was a headliner in European variety. He was a skilled mechanic and one of the most artistic magicians.
