Derren Brown is one of the world’s most well-known mindreaders. For years he was a star in his native England with multiple specials and touring shows.

Derren Brown is probably the most celebrated mind-reader alive today. He has had multiple touring theatre shows and TV specials in the UK and a recent run off Broadway.

Derren Brown, one of the most famous magician-mentalist-hypnotist-strangepeople in the United Kingdom who has recently crossed the pond for a new Broadway show called Secret.
He had a very interesting conversation with Michael Shermer, the publisher of Skeptic Magazine, about his latest book Happy. They talk about the quest for happiness, the search for meaning and dealing with death, as well as the skepticism associated with performing magic.
