Matt Baker

Matt Baker saw his first magician at age 4 (he’s the boy with his mouth agape in this picture) and began performing himself at the age of 10. He has won multiple awards for his magic, including (twice, most recently in 2019) the Greater Atlanta Magician of the Year award. Matt’s specialty is card magic, but he also performs astonishing feats of mind reading and has been known to make impossible things happen with M&Ms, rubber bands, and wedding rings. Matt performs strolling magic at cocktail parties and also does formal close-up and stage shows at banquets, fundraisers, schools, and private events. Matt loves creating original magic routines, and his work has been featured in some of the leading magic journals in the world. His first book on magic, The Buena Vista Shuffle Club, was published in April 2019 and has met with wide acclaim.
