Jim Vines grew up in Alabama, but for the past 25 years he has called New York City his home. His lifelong passion for magic was sparked at the age of 12, when a classmate vanished Jim’s milk money.
Jim co-stars in New York City’s #1 family-friendly magic show, the Broadway Magic Hour, now in its second year of performances. Time Out NY rated the show one of the “Best Magic Shows in NYC,” as well as one of the “Best Off Broadway Shows for Kids and Families.”
In 2017 Jim won the title of North American Champion of Close-Up Magic from FISM, the world congress of magic. When Jim recently performed his award-winning act on the hit TV show “Penn & Teller: FOOL US”, the legendary magic duo said, “Just brilliant! We loved every single second of it!”
Jim has shared his magic throughout the US – at such venues as The Wonderground in Las Vegas, the Smoke and Mirrors Theater in Philadelphia, and the Magic Castle in Hollywood – and in 11 other countries around the world.
