Dan Sperry

Dan Sperry (born August 1986, Minnesota) is an American magician and illusionist. He lives in New York City and has been married to Temika Sperry since May 14, 2010. Sperry is described as Copperfield meets Marilyn Manson.

At the age of four, Sperry went to see illusionist David Copperfield with his grandparents. At the age of 10 he performed his first show in front of an audience at a hometown picnic in rural Minnesota.

He began to perform at parties including a private party for Johnny Depp's children, universities, and festivals. At the age of 17 he was one of the youngest illusionists to headline the Magic Castle in Hollywood, California and multiple appearances on the TV series Masters of Illusion. Sperry was also the youngest illusionist featured in "The World’s Greatest Magic Show" for three years in Las Vegas and is the only illusionist to ever be awarded the title of most original magician on FOX’s World Magic Awards.

Sperry defines himself as an anti-conjuror, which in his own words is best described as a conjuror or "magician" that goes against the common trend of ostentation in magic.

After spending several years touring throughout Canada, Greece, Italy and numerous other destinations, Sperry appeared on season five of NBC's America’s Got Talent in early 2010. He received more than one million views on YouTube.

In October 2010 Sperry headlined at Fright Dome, a Las Vegas Halloween attraction for one month. Sperry returned to Fright Dome in 2011 to host the grand opening weekend with special performances.

Sperry now lives in New York City and performs in a solo headlining engagement "MAGIC SHOW" in the theater district of Times Square.

Sperry is currently touring around the world with the show titled "The Illusionists" billed as the most spectacular show in the world. He was one of the original 7 magicians who performed with the show and has been with the show ever since its premier in Sydney in 2012.
