When You See Me Do A Five-minute

Normally, I Do Magic On The Stage. But I Can Make Magic Credible And Resonate Through A Tv Screen.

Actually, I Started As A Ventriloquist And My Music Teacher Said, "why Don't You Emcee The Talent Show?" My Act Was Out Of The Back Of Boys' Life Magazine-they Had A Whole Series Of Jokes In The Back Of Boys' Life Magazine For Boy Scouts. So My Act Was Jokes With My Ventriloquist Figure, And It Was Really Bad, But I Walked Into The Classroom Afterward And The Kids Went, "wow, You're Cool." I Wasn't Cool At All, But I Thought, "well, This Is A Pretty Good Deal."

The Inspiration For My Illusions Comes From Many Places. Most Often They Come From My Dreams, Or An Everyday Occurrence In Life.

Performing My Show Is Something I Constantly Think About.

I Wrote An Op-ed Piece In The New York Times About The Amazing Effect Of Shared Wonder - How I Have An Audience Filled With People Who You'd Think Would Hate Each Other, People From Every Religious Category, All At The Same Show At The Same Time. And It's An Amazing Phenomenon To Watch This Shared Sense Of Wonder, Where These People Who Really Don't Like Each Other - For Good And Bad Reasons, Reasons That Make Sense And That Don't Make Sense - Are In The Same Room, Experiencing This Unification.
