David Copperfield: How He Became The World’s Most Successful Magician..

I spoke to David Copperfield, the most commercially successful magician in history, about his early influences, what keeps him motivated to continue to perform after years of magic, how he comes up with new tricks and his best career advice.

When not performing, he manages his chain of eleven resort islands in the Bahamas. Read the interview…
