Tommy "Wind" Riccardo is a new and aspiring magician. Only beginning at the age of 7, Tommy has launched his career and has performed in New York City, Atlantic City, and Las Vegas. His signature platinum hair and edgy music make the audience want more. Originally born in Great Kills in Staten Island, New Jersey, Tommy has begun to amaze people all over the U.S. with these illusions. Tying it together with the rock and roll music he uses during his shows transports the audience to a new, refreshing place that is more original than most magic shows.
Tommy began his career when he was only 7 after his grandfather introduced him to magic by showing him the disappearing hanky trick. [1] He has also premiered in TV shows including Chris Angel's "Mind Freak" and NBC's "I Do!". He is now the youngest magician to perform in Las Vegas up to date.
Just recently Tommy received an award on October 10 from the International Brotherhood of Magicians for Best Teen Magician of 2009. After receiving the award, he performed his famous floating antique table trick, also bringing up a member from the audience. "When I had found out that I had won the award, one of my dreams had come true," says Tommy.
