Who is Magic Tom?

Dr. Tom Way has been performing professionally as a magician since 1978. He has performed at home and abroad, for groups as large as 1,000 and as small as 1. His style incorporates humor and lots of audience participation, always with kindness.

As a young adult, Magic 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, and hundreds of well-appointed living rooms.

For fun, Magic Tom is also an online textbook author, marathon runner, software engineer, and professor of Computer Science at Villanova University.
