About Tim Mannix
Tim Mannix is one of California's busiest variety arts entertainers specializing in family entertainment and corporate events. Originally from Oklahoma City, his interest in magic began at the age of eight when he received Marshall Brodien’s TV Magic Set for Christmas. Yes, a simple Christmas gift started it all.
Tim spent much of his youth practicing and studying the ancient Art of magic, later becoming a demonstrator at a local downtown magic shop, Hecklers Joke Shop. In high school a stint working as an onstage assistant to local magician, Marlowe, proved a fantastic training ground for live performance experience with several cross-country trips performing at theaters, fairs and festivals and a national magician’s convention in 1977.
In addition to being a frequent performer at Hollywood’s world famous Magic Castle, Mannix is also 3-term past President of Hollywood Ring #21 of the International Brotherhood of Magicians.
Billed as a comedy illusionist, Tim's experience includes everything from adult performances at corporate gigs with his stand-up comedy magic act to tickling the funny bones of birthday party children all over Southern California. His show is rated “H” for hilarious and has been called the “best magic show for kids in Los Angeles!”
Celebrity clients include Angelina Jolie, Hilary Swank, Andy Garcia, Roseanne Cash, Kate Jackson and Michael Learned.
Tim Mannix currently offers four different educationally significant assembly programs covering topics such as science, math, history and the joy of reading. His READERS ARE LEADERS magic show has been seen by thousands of elementary school kids throughout California, Oregon, Nevada, and Arizona and is universally a hit with both students and educators alike.
Year-after-year Tim’s magic classes have proven to be the most well attended sessions as part of after school enrichment programs of numerous California private schools.
Tim Mannix resides in the San Joaquin Valley in Fresno, California.
