Frank Dunn Magician began his interest in magic at age 5 years old in 1975 buying his first magic trick “David Coppperfield’s disappearing handkerchief.” At age 10 Frank performed his first magic show for View Ridge Elementary School in Everett, Washington where he attended school. Frank started out as a clown magician where he mixed comedy with magic. Soon after that he began performing for Birthday parties. In 1983 he performed for the Everett Herald Newspaper company picnic at age 13. This was the springboard for corporate magic shows like Hewlett and Packard, Burger King, Starbucks Coffee, Dwayne Lanes Dodge, to name a few. He became a familiar name in the Northwest from Olympia to Bellingham with many shows in Seattle, Washington. He amazed audiences of all ages from the Boy Scouts to Retirement homes. Audiences invited him back year after year because of his ability to engage the audience with his magic show through humor, “When you are responsible for entertainment for your company of 124 employees or more, you want an entertainer that will not embarrass you in front of your coworkers and boss. Frank Dunn Magician year after year never let us down. He adjusted his show to our needs and always made us laugh and of course amazed us with his magical talent,” said Shelly Preston, of Swinomish Tribe, Washington.
