Ken Krenzel: A True New York Card Man


Ken Krenzel, one of New York City's most reputable card magicians for the last 50 years has passed away.

A staunch supporter of Tannen's Magic, Ken even published his first effect, It Can't Be, with Tannen's in 1958. Ken's work has been recognized as being highly influential to the field of card magic all over the world. Two of Ken's six books are still in print, Card Classics of Ken Krenzel and Relaxed Impossibilities.
"When Ken Krenzel performed the material in this book for me I knew then and there how good it was, and what a great contribution it'd be to the art I love - card magic".
- Harry Lorayne
A memorial service will be held this Friday. Please contact us at 212-929-4500 if you'd like to get in touch with Ken's family and attend the service.
