David Copperfield was born in 1956. He is the best known illusionist of our times. He was so
talented that he could do amazing card tricks in primary school. He didnt have to work,
because his family was quite rich. When he was at school, he learnt some magic tricks to
impress people. At the age of 16, he started teaching magic at New York University. In his
shows in the 1980s and 1990s, he made the Statue of Liberty disappear, walked through the
Great Wall of China and levitated across the Grand Canyon. In one show, he flew above the
stage with a lady from the audience in his arms, while thousands of amazed spectators were
