Daryl (born August 13, 1955) is the professional name of Daryl Easton, formerly Daryl Martinez, an American magician based in Las Vegas. In his marketing he uses the self-proclaimed title of "The Magician's Magician."[citation needed]
He specializes in card tricks, close-up and parlor magic. Two of his most famous contributions to magic are the "Hot Shot Cut", a knuckle-busting sleight where the spectator's chosen card spins like a boomerang out of the deck, and the "Ultimate Ambition" trick which allows a card to be inserted fairly into the middle of a deck and yet appear back on top.[citation needed]
Daryl has won the gold medal at the FISM magic world championship in Card Magic for his ambitious card routine.[citation needed]
He is well known to magicians as the presenter of many teach-in video series for L&L Publishing, including Daryl's Card Revelations, Encyclopedia of Card Sleights, FoolerDoolers, and Daryl's Ambitious Card Video.[citation needed]
His wife, Alison Easton, was the first woman to be inducted into The Magic Circle.[citation needed]
Daryl usually goes by his forename only.
