As a young adult, Tom paid his way through college performing for children’s birthday parties, still one of his favorite venues. Over the years, he has performed in many exotic locales, including the world-famous Magic Castle, the Japanese Embassy, Shakey’s Pizza Parlors, a rest stop in the Andes Mountains, and hundreds of well-appointed living rooms.

Now, Dr. Tom, who is also known as Magic Tom, performs regularly for parties, banquets, summer camps, nursing homes, corporate events, trade shows, fancy cocktail parties, non-profit fundraisers, and any other place where people are gathered to enjoy some light-hearted astonishment.
