Who is he?

At one time Steve Draun was known as the “Underground Man”, regularly fooling the top card men that traveled through Chicago. Today, Steve performs in the “real world” of professional magic, and, of this writing, he has had extensive experience performing for both the Wyndham and Hilton hotel chains as well as many hundreds of performances at other corporate functions.

Steve’s experience in both the technical and professional sides of magic has produced a unique lecture. He will demonstrate techniques from his books and videotape, which will improve your basic card handling. You will learn useful tips that show how to perfect double lifts, palms, false deals, blind shuffles, glimpses, crimps, etc. Half the lecture will be on cards; during the other half he will perform and reveal several professional routines with silks and dice. These are showpieces that have been honed to perfection through thousands of performances. Read what Ed Marlo has to say about Steve in “Secrets Draun from Underground” by Richard Kaufman.
