Background Daniel Kopf was born in Pennsylvania in 1970. His parents moved to Brazil, where the family lived for several years before moving to Washington state. At seven years of age, Daniel began learning magic. He learned on his own, until he collaborated with his friend and neighbor, Brian Staples, who was also interested in magic. The duo began performing small shows together, mostly in churches, until at the age of thirteen Daniel moved with his family to Arizona. Daniel kept learning and performing in Phoenix and Prescott. After graduating from high school, he began performing across the States. Daniel eventually found himself entertaining children in the Bahamas, and in eastern Europe. Currently, Daniel Kopf is living in Phoenix, Arizona, and entertaining full time for children and adults. He has put together a show which integrates his love for animals with magic. Daniel is now building an educational show for school assemblies with a multi-cultural outlook, which will feature birds from various continents throughout the world.
