Jason Bird has spent the last 25 years professionally lying to people—with honesty and style.

He’s a magician, mentalist, creator, keynote speaker, and for over two decades, has been professionally deceiving people in the most delightful ways imaginable. With more than 9,000 performances under his belt having performed for over 1 million people live,as well as for countless millions more on television including multiple stints on NBC’s America’s Got Talent and The CW’s Masters of Illusion, he’s also starred in multi-million dollar productions on the Las Vegas Strip, where the audiences are skeptical, the lights are hot, and the competition is unforgiving.

Jason has invented scores of original effects—some for himself, some for other magicians, and some he probably should’ve kept secret. He’s performed at thousands of walk-around gigs and scores of cruise ships. He’s headlined countless stage shows, and built a reputation as one of the most respected—and booked—magicians in the business.

But more than that, Jason is a husband to a truly remarkable woman who sees right through him (in the best possible way), and a father to three beautiful, chaotic, endlessly curious children who think that having a magician for a dad is both amazing and mildly embarrassing. Today, when he’s not performing miracles at private events, casinos, hotels, or boardrooms Jason shares his knowledge with magicians and business leaders  alike—teaching them how to own the room, master perception, and create unforgettable moments without needing a trapdoor or a deck of marked cards.

If you’re wondering whether Jason is really that good—he is.

If you’re wondering how he pulled off that last trick—you’re not alone.

And if you’re wondering what kind of person devotes their life to mystery, mischief, and meaning?

Now you know.
