Mark Wilson

Credited for becoming the first major “television magician” American Mark Wilson’s (1929-current) interests in magic started at the age of eight after seeing magician Tommy Martin perform at a hotel where Wilson’s family was staying. He continued to hone his magic skills and in 1955 launched the TV show, Time for Magic. While starting on a local Dallas channel, Wilson eventually signed with CBS, and later ABC. Wilson continued his television career into the 1980s with help from his longtime assistant Nani and son Greg.
