Profile Information

- 21+
- I specialize in magic for:
- Private Parties (business functions / christmas parties / conventions / family reunions), Night Clubs / Comedy Clubs, Restaurants, Corporate Events (trade shows / meetings / product launches), other (see 'About Me')

- Sit-down, Walk-around, Bar / Close-Up - although I did perform in an hour and a half Stage Illusion Show, "The Magical World of Kurt Moore Larson" for 5+ years in the '80's.
My first introduction to magic was when I was about 8 years old. I was at a Father and Son dinner at our church and a magician named Harry Tomlinson was that night’s entertainment. I was totally amazed. I really think that I made up my mind that I would one day become a magician. I had no idea that it would become my life’s work at that point. That year I got the obligatory magic set for Christmas – and I was off and running. From that point on it was all I could think of, with every waking hour.
To keep this on the short side of becoming a novel I’ll attempt a mini-bio.
By the time I entered my first year of middle school I had started to perform for friends, relatives, at school and church. I met my friend Bobby during that year and had a dad who was a magician, who sort of took us both on as a teacher. As it turned out he would become my mentor in magic, as did Harry Tomlinson. His name was Bill Greenough, and Bill became the President of The Society of American Magicians – and the only person who would hold that office for two terms besides the Great Houdini himself.
Bill introduced me to many of the greats of that time at conventions and at his home in Wethersfield, CT. I had the privilege of meeting the likes of Harry Blackstone Sr., Sorcar, Jack Chanin, Channing Pollock, Harry Blackstone Jr. and The Professor himself Dai Vervon among many others. Many of them would end up teaching me many thing in magic, during conventions or at visits to Bill’s home.
I have gone on to make many great friends – both in and out of magic. I include some of them in the photos herein
I dedicate this page and all I have done and will do in magic to the one who has gone before me,
and whom I miss so very much – my mentor Bill Greenough.
- My dream in life is:
- I have achieved many of my dreams in life within the world of magic. At 65 years young, I have been a professional magician since the age of 17 and have achieved more than modicum of success. I have served as Past President of Assembly 21 of the SAM, President 5 years running of The Loyal Order of The Wand, President of The Circle of Thirteen and other magic fraternal clubs and organizations. I am happy to be here, fellow magicians - new and old.
- My favorite quote:
- Never tell the secret. "No matter how small and unimportant what we are doing may seem, if we do it well, it may soon become the step that will lead us to better things." Channing Pollock

To magically cause objects to move and levitate is one of the most visually stunning things a magician can do. That's what this group is all about. Read and share ideas, suggest and review levitation and animation products. Get help and share tips.
My "MAGIC and MOORE" Storefront
Hi there fellow Magi. I'm not gonna knock you if you don't buy from me. After all your local shop would probably be your best bet, in fact I encourage that very idea. On the other hand I won't refuse your money.
I'll give you fair value on your purchase, and most of the time your order will go out the very next day. I do hope you understand that there will be no refunds once the effect is purchased. because the secret is now your to do with as you please. I will however replace and damaged goods effect for effect.
I will be constantly be adding and exchanging items, and you are more than welcome to drop me an email of anything you might have a hankering for, and I'll write back with a quote.
Until next time I'll just make like a Magish and Vanish... POOF gone in a wisp of smoke.

Thanks Vynn. I just did a 40th birthday party and decided to do my cut and restored rope as a close up item. I have never had such a strong reaction to that trick in 30 years ... one of the guests kept following me around to watch the rope trick.
Hijinx,
I feel your pain and with experience I have decided that I will not do just walk around close up magic for a group of less than 75. Depending on the crowd there are many different directions you can go. On my web page I give one direction a…

Mark,
I had the pleasure of watching Aldo and Rachel perform (demo effects from their CD's) at a recent Magic Club event here in Melbourne, Florida and picked up 3 of their DVD's. I would highly encourage everyone to get any of their DVD's because…
