successful magician in history.
When Copperfield was 10, he began
practicing magic as "Davino the Boy Magician" in his neighborhood, and at age 12, he became the youngest person admitted to the Society of American Magicians. Shy and a loner, the young Copperfield saw magic as a way to fit in. By age 16, he was teaching a course in magic at New York University. Best known for his combination of storytelling and illusion, Copperfield's career of over 40 years has earned him 11 Guinness World Records.
In 2015, Forbes listed his earnings at $63 million.
