Justin Willman

Magic in Real Life

Justin Willman has been performing magic since he was a child, but the combination of his sharp wit and clever tricks have made him a firm favorite with millions.

He writes and consults for a string of hit household TV shows including America's Got Talent and The Goldbergs, and makes regular appearances on Ellen, Conan, and The Tonight Show.

Born in St Louis, Justin began dabbling in magic when he was very young and cites David Copperfield, Harry Blackstone and Lance Burton as his inspirations. But, rather than sticking with 'old fashioned' type tricks, Justin added his unique brand of tongue-in-cheek humor and was soon wowing his audiences.

He graduated in Broadcast Journalism at Emerson College in Boston before moving to Los Angeles where he now lives with his wife, and landing a gig hosting Cupcake Wars. He went on to host Disney Channel's Win, Lose or Draw and, was invited to perform at the White House's Halloween Party as a guest of President Barack Obama in 2011. Last year, he became the star and executive producer of Magic for Humans, which sees him performing tricks for people on the street.

Justin's highly polished, comical magic act has seen him notch up more than 100 million views online and is now coming to a theater near you.
