Ben Seidman is a hilarious master of deception. He utilizes pickpocketing, sleight of hand, and psychological magic to create stunning and original magic experiences.

Seidman guest-starred on the Netflix series Brainchild, produced by Pharrell, and starred in Vanity Fair and WIRED’s “Experts React” series, discussing magic, sleight of hand, and pickpocketing. He appeared on Vanderpump Rules, starred in two specials on Travel Channel, and appeared twice on Penn & Teller: Fool Us. Ben was a magic consultant for the film Now You See Me: Now You Don’t, designing illusions and training the actors in sleight of hand.

While known for large events, Ben also creates amazement at small private parties, including performances for Christina Aguilera, Morgan Freeman, and Zedd. He has dazzled CEOs, Senators, and the late-great Robin Williams.

Ben lives in Los Angeles with his wife Sarah and their dog Juno.
