What Other Magicians Say
"Buddy August is a true master of our craft as both a performer and a teacher. He was a guest lecturer in a six week workshop I gave on Magic That Means Something and Buddy absolutely knocked it out of the park...my students learned so much from Buddy about creativity, stage craft, and he had actionable to do's at the end of his talk. I myself took 4 pages of notes. If you don't hire Buddy to lecture you will truly be missing out on an opportunity to move magic forward."
Franklin Williams - Author, Lecturer, and Creator of Magic.
"Buddy August is an inspiration! After taking a 57 year break from his MAGIC career he came back to win awards and win the hearts of audiences around the world."
Jeff McBride - Las Vegas Headliner

How I Started
I took up magic at ten, having taken to the stage at seven. I made good money as a teenage Magician, but when I told my dad that I wanted to be a theater major, Dad said, "Well, Buddy, who's going to help you through school?".
I became an engineer!!!!
What I Did Next
It seems I just couldn't stop learning and doing. After becoming an engineer, I served in the army, and went to the Peace Corps. Then I married, had four children, and designed and built over 1,000 homes in Kentucky. I led a seven division corporation, earned an MBA, Ed.D, and a MSSW. I did all of it hoping to improve the lives of others.....
Really just wanting to add some MAGIC to their lives!!
One Lucky Fellow
While working as a group therapist for older adults, COVID hit. That changed everything...again. Lucky me, I had all that magic still in my head, in my heart and on the shelf. What better way to create wonder, joy, and characters like Pappy Budreaux, the Swamp Conjurer. His first appearance? House of Blues/ June 2023!
Kudos to Jeff McBride for my creative success. See: https://magicalwisdom.com
