With a showman’s flair, a comedian’s wit, and the capacities of a bona fide Mentalist or thought reader, The Amazing Kreskin has, for some six decades, dramatized the unique facets of the human mind…his own. His very name has become an integral part of pop culture throughout the world, invoked in comedy clubs, comic strips, print stories, TV shows and national magazines. Born in Montclair, New Jersey, it was during the childhood game “hot and cold” that Kreskin’s remarkable ability to find hidden objects emerged. His ability to read thoughts expanded, and by his teens he also became nationally recognized in the United States as “The World’s Youngest Hypnotist”, resulting in his collaborating in psychological clinical studies extending into the realm of Parapsychology and the Power of Suggestion. By his late teens, this icon of thought transference developed a mental test that has become the highlight of his performances all over the world. This signature piece has Kreskin requesting that his check be hidden somewhere within the venue he is appearing. If he fails to find it, he will forfeit his fee. Kreskin continues to offer “$50,000 to anybody that can prove that he employs paid secret assistants or confederates in any phase of his program”. It is an offer as yet unchallenged. Through the decades, audiences of all ages have been mesmerized by this legendary figure. How many other celebrities can boast their own television series, their own board game, over sixteen books, their own theme song arranged by Skitch Henderson and previewed at Carnegie Hall; hundreds of appearances on almost every talk/variety show around. The Amazing Kreskin is often hired as a training consultant to law enforcement and security personnel throughout the western world to teach how to fully develop their own powers of observation and intuitive skills. Often heard: how can he know more than us? Through the years, Kreskin has received international recognition for extraordinary predictions often dealing with world affairs: he correctly predicted the outcome of the US Presidential Election in 2008; same year he correctly predicted the outcome of the Super Bowl. He has been called by many the Nostradamus of the twentieth century.
