ABOUT ROBERT LAMAR: Robert LAMAR has devoted much of his life to the study and understanding of magic, hypnosis, memory
training and parapsychology. Born in the province of Ontario, Canada, he developed an interest in this specialized field at a very early age.

When he was just six he started learning the art of magic through trick packages he ordered from magic catalogues. When he was only twelve
he saw one of the world's truly great entertainers, The Impossiblist, Peter Reveen. This event captivated the young Robert and he was further
drawn by the power to perform and entertain. He eventually met Reveen and the friendship they established has endured for many years. He
has also spent many years studying the allied arts, specifically mesmerism, hypnotism and magic as a performance art. His studies led him to
the conclusion that the field he wished to enter was not one of formal hypnotism but that of a highly focused state of attention through which
he could tap into a person's natural creativity. This was the formative basis for developing Theatre of the MIND™.

Robert LAMAR, in addition to more than thirty years devoted to the study of his craft, is a member of the International Brotherhood of
Magicians (I.B.M.), a member of the Society of American Magicians and is also a member of the International Magic Society. The I.B.M. is
the largest organization of its kind in the world. Membership is achieved only through sponsorship and Robert LAMAR's sponsor into the
society was provided by his very good friend and mentor, Peter Reveen.

Tens of thousands of Canadians have been amazed and entertained by Theatre of the MIND™ through live shows and appearances on both
CTV and CBC television. This is the signature of the most consistently praised hypnotic attraction.
