Star began creating  "magical experiences"   when he was only seven years old. Since that time, he has shared his magic with countless people of all ages.

His professional career began while attending the University of Oklahoma. It was during this period that Star realized magic's unique ability to illustrate the concepts and ideas presented in his "I AM MAGIC" and M.A.G.I.C. Programs. Whether performing for children or adults, his gentle reminder that "things aren't always as they seem" and "we can do almost anything we put our minds to" are uniquely illustrated in his Magic.

Born the son of a minister, young Eric (Star) was raised with a strong sense of family values, moral character and the importance of believing in himself and looking for the good in others. He took up the piano when he was 9, and always felt that magic and music went 'hand in hand' (pun intended) He also plays the 6 & 12 string guitars. In junior high, he got into Karate and lettered in Gymnastics in high school.

While at OU Star became a member (for two seasons) of the Sooner Football Tumbling Squad. At the same time, he began performing close-up magic tableside at a little club called "Bogarts". 

In 1982, Star left college to pursue his career as a Magician, and moved to Oklahoma City, where he flourished for 3 years before making the decision to travel.

In 1985, he moved to Crested Butte, Colorado, where he met and married the love of his life, Judi Savoy. They took one name, "Star" to represent their shared belief that in marriage, the "two shall be one". They have remained "Partners in time" happily since.

1993 Star moved to Laughlin, NV, where he got his first 'casino' experience, performing at Harrah's in the capacity of strolling 'house' magician until 1995 when they moved to Las Vegas. (see "Appearances")
