  • "I had the privilege of hosting Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman for a recent Lunch & Learn at our company, and he was nothing short of extraordinary. Scott’s unique blend of insight, intellect, perseverance, and crowd work captivated everyone in the room from start to finish. We still talk about his performance weeks later. His ability to weave together science, psychology, and a heavy dose of mentalism (which I'm convinced was genuine mind reading) created an engaging session that left us all thinking differently about creativity, human potential, and the ability to will ourselves into success. Beyond his talent as a performer, Dr. Kaufman’s warmth, humor, and authenticity made the experience both personal and memorable. We can’t recommend him highly enough. He is spectacular."

  • "We hired Scott as a magician and mentalist for my brother’s wedding, and he was absolutely fantastic. People were talking about how impressive and mind-blowing his tricks were long after they saw them. Scott added such a fun and unique energy to the celebration. His presence gave guests something exciting and interactive to enjoy between the big moments, and it truly elevated the whole experience. If you’re looking for a memorable addition to a wedding or event, I can’t recommend him enough."

  • "He was terrific! He blew everyone's minds here at the hotel."

    Zachary Courtney, Marketing Director, Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows

  • "Scott not only correctly guessed my favorite movie, but he produced a ticket stub from the year it came out. The only explanation I can come up with is that he's been physically following me for two decades... that, or he's a really good magician. Not sure."

    Mark Manson, Bestselling author of The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*uck

  • “Scott Barry Kaufman’s performance blew me away! I found myself gasping after some of his tricks, and spent many days puzzling out how he might have done it. (Of course, I never did figure it out.) Don’t miss Scott’s latest shows.”

    Sonja Lyubomirsky, bestselling author of The How of Happiness

RIP The Amazing Kreskin (@theamazingkreskin), one of the best mentalists of all time and a big inspiration for me. Kreskin spent his life trying to show people their mind’s potential. I learned a lot about human potential from his books.
