Michael Graves Magic Magician from Parkers Prairie, MN

From the age of four, my Uncle Nick sparked my fascination with magic, starting with the ever-elusive “Who’s got your nose?” (I’m still not entirely sure.) What began as playful curiosity quickly evolved into a lifelong passion, nurtured by my mother's constant encouragement. With her unwavering support and saint-like patience, my journey into the mysterious world of magic truly began. By the time I was 12, I was performing paid shows for friends, family, and anyone who’d let me practice my latest mind-bending routine. When I wasn’t on stage, I was studying—devouring every book I could find (the local library knew me by name). Growing up in Minneapolis–Saint Paul, I had the rare fortune of access to not one, but two legendary magic shops: Twin Cities Magic & Costume and Eagle Magic (yes, the same Eagle Magic where Houdini himself once shopped). There, I learned from seasoned professionals and collected stories, skills, and more than a few decks of cards. Of course, none of this would’ve been possible without my mom enduring hours of, “Mom, watch this! Mom—look! Look!” So, thanks, Mom. Today, I continue down that magical path, blending the art of magic with the power of the mind. I invite you to experience the strange, the mysterious, and have your Mind Unleashed. Michael can also perform close-up magic that is perfect for dinner parties or at restaurants where private shows at every table will keep customers coming back for more. This is just a partial list of clients that Michael has performed for and he hopes to add your name to it.
