"This was, hands down, the best decision we could have made to hire Steven Paul Carlson for our event!  I would completely recommend him to anyone looking for entertainment.  Our clients, being all adults, were skeptical of a magician at first but about 10 seconds into interacting with him, they were astonished and felt a joy overtake them!  He is amazing to talk to, watch and just spending time around him was a pleasure!  I can not wait to do business with him, in the future, and as I know he will always be a hit! "    - M. White, Vice President SFACC
