Garrett Thomas - a close up magician based out of the Western NY area. He has made a name for himself as a master prestidigitator and as an innovator within the world of magic.

As a magician, Thomas is known for being not only one of the top card, coin, and ring manipulators; but also as a magician who thinks deeply about the psychology of what is "real" magic. His original effects and extreme technical skill culminate in highly visual, entertaining routines.

This combination of imagination and skill has led to him being sought out by other world class magicians (David Blaine, Marco Tempest, among others) as a personal instructor as well as a consultant.

Thomas also teaches novice magicians and has produced several instructional books and videos on the subjects of coin, card and ring manipulation. In addition to this, he often travels worldwide to present lectures on magic and performance art for such groups as the International Brotherhood of Magicians, the University of Delaware and the 4F Convention.
