Dan Kamin

With eye-popping movement, mind-boggling sleight-of-hand magic and sidesplitting comedy, funnyman and magician Dan Kamin performs worldwide for theatres, colleges and symphony orchestras.

Despite his impressive stage and screen credits, Dan’s artistic beginnings were humble. He began performing as a boy magician at the age of twelve, struggling to entertain audiences of hyperkinetic, sugar-crazed children at birthday parties.

Seeking a less stressful way of making a living he attended Pittsburgh’s Carnegie Mellon University to study industrial design. But when he saw the eye-popping movement illusions practiced by master mime Jewel Walker, then teaching in the school’s famous drama department, Dan’s hopes for living a normal life evaporated.
