has established himself
as one of the country's most knowledgeable and entertaining,
Motivational speakers. At their annual conference, members of the
Institute of Management Consultants gave Bodine a 10+ rating on
their 5-point scale.
He is academically
trained in public speaking and human behavior with
degrees from UCLA in Speech Communications and Social
Psychology. While attending UCLA as a scholarship athlete, Bodine
also earned honors as team captain.
Shortly after
graduating from UCLA, Bodine became fascinated with the art of
sleight-of-hand magic. He immediately immersed himself in his
newfound passion. Six months later he was making his entire living as
a professional, sleight-of-hand magician.
Over the past 20
years he has accumulated an adventurous entertainment background, and
in the process he has become one of the premiere sleight-of-hand
entertainers in America. His peers, at the world famous Academy of
Magical Arts, have nominated him "Best Sleight-of-hand Magician of
the Year." His magical skills are equaled only by his
ability to make his audiences laugh. For three years in a row, members
of the Academy of Magical Arts have also nominated Bodine as
the "Best Comedy Magician of the Year".
