Magician Keith Leff performed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, at the Moniteau County Fair. He performed across from the carnival near the west entrance to the fairgrounds, making "events magically memorable."

Leff, from the Kansas City area, has been learning magic since he discovered at a very young age that a magician lived next door. He received a magic kit at age seven, and continued from there. His first paid performance was when he was in junior high school.

He continued in his magic, earning his way through Kansas State University with his performances. He successfully earned double major B.S. - Mass Communications and Public Relations - minoring in Human Ecology. After working in marketing for about five years, Leff started Magicreations, where he performs "as one of the most successful magical entertainers in the field."

Since then, he has won a number of awards and honors.
