John Michael Hinton. Magician. Storyteller. Redhead. Driven by a passion to encourage people to embrace joy, he uses the power of magic, storytelling, and humor in a mix that you won’t soon forget. As seen on the CW’s hit show Penn & Teller: Fool Us, and with millions of views on YouTube, John Michael is a sought-after speaker and entertainer. When not traveling coast to coast, he spends his free time sharing large cups of black tea with his beautiful wife and playing with his three children. Outside of his family, his favorite things in life are cooking Italian food, a good suspenseful movie, and family trips to Disney World and NYC.
