Kevin Spencer, Ph.D., isn’t your run-of-the-mill magician. He’s an award-winning performing artist who’s redefined the magic scene. Alongside his wife, Cindy, Kevin dazzled audiences across the globe for over a quarter of a century with their spellbinding illusion productions. Their shows earned them accolades like the 2009 International Illusionists of the Year and six-time winners of Performing Arts Entertainer of the Year.
But Kevin’s not one to rest on his laurels. At the peak of his career, he traded the glitz and glam of the stage for the quiet corridors of classrooms and hospitals. Armed with a Ph.D. in Special Education and a heart full of compassion, he’s on a mission to prove that magic isn’t just about entertainment—it’s about transformation.
Kevin’s journey from stage to sanctuary led him to become a trailblazer in the therapeutic world of magic. He’s not just pulling rabbits out of hats; he’s pulling kids out of their shells. His groundbreaking programs, Magic Therapy™ and Hocus Focus™, have earned him international acclaim, including the coveted International Illusionists of the Year award from The Milbourne Christopher Foundation.
But what truly sets Kevin apart is his unwavering commitment to inclusivity. His performances aren’t just for the lucky few; they’re for everyone. Whether you’re a child with autism or an adult with a developmental disability, Kevin’s magic knows no bounds. And he’s not just performing; he’s educating. As a faculty member at prestigious institutions like Harvard Medical Teaching Hospital and Boston Children’s Hospital, Kevin’s sharing his secrets with the next generation of healers and educators.
But Kevin’s not in it for the awards or the applause. He’s in it for the smiles—the ones he sees on the faces of children who’ve never experienced the magic of the stage before. Because for Kevin Spencer, Ph.D., the real magic isn’t in the tricks; it’s in the transformation. And that’s an award worth far more than any trophy or plaque.
