Ormond McGill

At a young age, Ormond McGill became interested in magic, and eventually took a correspondence course through the Tarbell Music School in Chicago while still in high school.

After graduating from high school in 1931, he attended San Jose State, studying psychology, commercial art and advertising. He relates how his love affair with hypnosis was triggered as a university student when he saw a performance of a stage hypnotist named De Walzoa. That performance would shape his life forever.

Now with a career as a world-traveling magician and stage hypnotist, McGill was also a skilled hypnotherapist and a student of Eastern mysticism. He wrote somewhere between twenty-five and forty books.

Eventually, he became known as “The Dean of American Hypnotism.” Ormond McGill taught many courses and lectures about Hypnotism right up until his death.

Listen to Ormond McGill as he tells secrets about hypnosis and magic in this rare interview.
