Debbie Leifer performs at the top of corporate magic and was voted Atlanta Magician of the Year. She has performed for President George H.W. Bush, four Georgia governors, and stars from Jane Fonda to Muhammad Ali, whom she taught a few tricks in person. Voted Best Comedy Magician and, most recently, Best Mentalist of 2025, she pairs polished sleight-of-hand with sharp comic timing and mind reading that leaves a room trying to figure out what just happened.
Her magic is interactive and personal. She reads minds, names the card a guest is only thinking of, and turns ordinary bills into hundreds right in someone’s own hands. The style is warm and conversational, built on clean humor and real connection rather than big stage spectacle. She performs several formats: her “Mind Games” interactive mentalism show, mingling close-up magic for cocktail hours and receptions, and a fast-paced comedy magic and mentalism show that pulls guests up to become the stars.
That range makes her a natural fit for corporate audiences, and her client list reads like a Fortune 500 directory: Coca-Cola, Google, Microsoft, BMW, American Express, Delta, UPS, Honda, Disney, and Ritz-Carlton among them. She is just as effective drawing crowds at a trade show booth, energizing a sales meeting or executive retreat, headlining a holiday party or awards banquet, or mingling through a black-tie gala. From a dozen VIPs to a ballroom of hundreds, she tailors the material to the company and the occasion.
Debbie’s résumé reaches well beyond Atlanta. She has entertained on 12 international luxury cruises across five continents, headlined the grand opening of Japan’s first dinner theater in Osaka, and performed at the International Magic Festival in Hong Kong, the Olympics, two Super Bowls, and the United Nations. She has appeared on Good Day Atlanta eight times, consulted on a feature film, and provided the close-up hands for a television commercial.
What guests remember most is how personal it feels. Debbie makes everyone in the room part of the fun, and the impossible moments happen close enough to touch. Her performances send people home laughing, second-guessing what they saw, and still comparing notes days later.
