I'm Keith, 31 and originally from the Reading, PA area. Magic was the first hobby I ever got extremely serious about at around age 7 and 8. I would practice with my brother and perform for friends and different social functions. Eventually in my high school years I started doing childrens birthday and holiday parties. I feel priveleged to have met and been taught quite a bit by Tom Ogden who just happens to have family from close to my home town. I met him at Mingus magic shop in Reading and got to see him perform as well as sit down with a deck of cards. I joined the Air Force at 19 and stopped focusing as much time on the hobby but would still tinker with cards or some of my old books and VHS tapes from time to time. I'm still in the Air Force, I'm an A-10 avionics troop by trade but currently work as an instructor at Davis Monthan in Tucson, AZ. My interest was peaked recently because I'm working with a fellow magician and we have been trading ideas back and forth. I've been devoting more and more time and hope to get back to where I was if not more. My end goal with magic would be to perform walk around or restaurant magic here in town. This website seems like a very valuable resource and I thank you in advance!

Welcome Keith,
Nice introduction. Your past experience plus renewed interest coupled with the Café should make for good progress. I'll see you in the "Table Hoppers and Party Strollers" forum. -Mary Mowder |

Welcome Keith,
I think you will find a lot of good stuff on the café to help you reach your goal. One suggestion: See if there are any magic clubs in your area (SAM, IBM..) These are great places to practice your magic in front of an audience of people to prepare yourself to reach your goal. KJ |
