Lance Burton is widely considered by his peers to be the greatest stage Magician of the past century. As magic historian Mike Caveney has stated; \u201cTake every Magician in the world, line them up and give them each twelve minutes…Lance Wins!\u201d<\/p>\n

Born and raised in Louisville, Kentucky, Lance Burton burst onto the national stage on October 28, 1981 by making his first appearance on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Over the years he racked up appearances on David Letterman, Jay Leno, The View, Craig Ferguson, The World\u2019s Greatest Magic, Hollywood Squares, and even acted in guest starring roles on Knight Rider, and Las Vegas.<\/p>\n

In 1996 Lance Burton\u2019s first TV special, Lance Burton Master Magician; The Legend Begins, aired on NBC. This was quickly followed by a series of annual TV specials. He also hosted specials for The History Channel, Discovery, Animal Planet, The Family Channel, and many more.<\/p>\n

While successful on TV, Lance Burton\u2019s greatest accomplishments have been made in live performance. Working primarily in Las Vegas he has performed an astounding 15,000 shows in his 30-year career. His last performance was September 4, 2010.<\/p>\n

Today Lance Burton is happily retired and lives quietly in Las Vegas. He spends his time supporting a number of charities including Nevada SPCA, Heaven Can Wait Animal Society, Variety Children\u2019s Charity, and the Shriner\u2019s Children\u2019s Hospitals. He mentors young Magicians, and has taken up a hobby, filmmaking.<\/p>\n

Lance Burton recently made his debut as a Feature Film Director. \u201cBilly Topit Master Magician\u201d was the closing night film at the Wild Rose Independent Film Festival in Des Moines, Iowa, where it won six awards including Best Family Film!<\/p>\n

He is currently working on a number of documentary and narrative film projects. Recently Lance worked on \u201cOz the Great and Powerful\u201d as Magic Advisor. He taught magic to James Franco, who he now considers his number one student.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
