He was raised and educated in Catholic schools in Los Angeles.At the age of eight he became intrigued after discovering a magic book at the local library. It was at this same time that the television series "The Magician" starring Bill Bixby was on the air and further fueled his passion for magic.At sixteen, after an extensive audition and interview process, Hart was accepted into the Magic Castle's elite junior program. As a teenager, he earned extra money working in a cemetery as a grave digger and was nicknamed Lurch due to his tall, lanky frame. Soon realizing that it was a dead-end job, Hart accepted a position demonstrating tricks at Hollywood Magic, the largest West Coast magic shop.Working in Hollywood gave Hart the opportunity to meet and perform before the likes of Michael Jackson, Johnny Carson, Muhammad Ali, and Harry Anderson. As Hart's reputation grew he soon came to the attention of David Copperfield for whom Hart first worked as a Magic Roadie. Impressed with Hart's knowledge and expertise in the field of magic, Copperfield continued to use him on several more live and television shows, including the Great Wall of China special.His sleight-of-hand magic has been featured in national television commercials for McDonald's, Honda and RCA. He has twice been awarded "Stage Magician of the Year" by Hollywood's Magic Castle, and Princess Stephanie of Monaco personally awarded him the top prize at the Grand Prix Magique held in Monte Carlo.Hart is currently performing in TV's Magic Stars at the Golden Cabaret at the Horizon Casino Resort in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.

Pay attention to every detail.     Chipper’s Approach to Comedy • Inspired by Karrell Fox and subscribes to his philosophy of “come up with the routine and material first, then figure out the method." • Does a small case study on his “Trained Turtle” routine. • Put as many speed bumps and walls as you can into your routines, because then you’re creating more opportunities for funny moments. (Tip from Teller.) • Making up bizarre rules like “the woman cannot be closer than 10 ft from you."   Being Clean and Branding Your Act • He doesn’t care whether he’s clean or dirty, but his product is clean. • When you work dirty, you define the places you can work. • It really came down to how he wanted to brand himself.     Failure Moment Tells about an instance that could have been a failure but with a little creative thinking and attention to timing, things went off without a hitch.     Other Topics Covered • Designing your life by writing your eulogy and working backward from that. • Looking at how Disney does things and modeling your business after them. • Talks about being raised on circuses and being on the road with his family. • How he discovered comedy magic. • How he got a job juggling for Disneyland…after shaving his mustache of course! • Dealing with outside distractions while performing. • Being honest about your performances and the audience reactions. • Variances in audiences, and bending your material accordingly. • How taking improv courses (with The Groundlings) helped his act. • Staying within time constraints for performances. • Eliminating your competition when people call and want to book you specifically. • Controlling the environment in which you perform in.   Parting Advice Go with the flow.     Recommended books and resources: Note: Many of the links in this section are affiliate links, meaning we earn a small portion of any sales.
