Tommy Wind is a magician from Staten Island in New York City. He has performed in many of his own original shows, combining illusion with rock and roll music, in New York City, Atlantic City, New Jersey, and Las Vegas, Nevada.

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 appeared in TV shows including Criss Angel's "Mindfreak" and NBC's "I Do!". He is now the youngest magician to perform in Las Vegas up to date.[2]

Tommy received an award on October 10, 2009 from the International Brotherhood of Magicians for Best Teen Magician of 2009.[3] 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.
