About Brian Ballard

 At  age 11, Brian was admitted to Cardinal Glennon Childrens  Hospital in St. Louis for high blood sugar.  Brian was diagnosed with  type 1 diabetes. Brian spent the next 2 weeks there learning how to take  care of his diabetes. 1 day a magician from Six Flags over Mid America  came to the hospital to perform a magic show for the young patients.  Brian was hooked!  Later Brian's mom purchased a small magic set from  the hospital gift shop for Brian. It was here, a magician was born.
