A KIXP Interview with Henry ‘Oz, The German Magician

Click here to listen to the latest interview on Life on Orcas Island with Edee Kulper.

I lost my mother when I was ten. The world stopped making sense. At seventeen, I was living alone, figuring it out. I picked up my first deck of cards—not for the art of magic, but to connect with people. Magic gave me something I didn’t expect: FAITH. For the next 18 years, I worked in Germany’s automotive industry—Volkswagen, Porsche, stability and structure. But the magic inside me never left. The older I got, the louder the question became: Is this it? The suffering I’d been through wasn’t random—it was preparation for something bigger. In 2021, I answered that call. Left Germany. Left the security. Came to America seeking freedom—and found it on a small island where I could meditate, breathe, and finally become who I was meant to be. Now I bring wonder to audiences across America—from intimate gatherings to theaters, from weddings to corporate stages. My shows aren’t about fooling you—they’re about moving you. About that split second when your mind says “impossible” and your heart says “maybe.” I create moments that remind people of something they’ve forgotten: that sense of pure wonder we all had as children—before the world told us to stop believing. That’s the real magic. And it’s still out there.
