Sven Lennart Green (born 25 December 1941) is a Swedish world champion close-up/card magician, a title which he won in 1991 at the FISM convention in Lausanne, Switzerland.[2] He is known for his seemingly chaotic routines which, in spite of first appearances, display great skill.[3] His original techniques and presentation style form an unorthodox and innovative contribution to sleight of hand magic.[4]
Biography[edit]
Green began practicing magic at the age of 18. Green competed at the 1988 FISM convention in The Hague, Netherlands, and was erroneously disqualified because the judges believed he had used stooges in his act to shuffle the cards.[5] In 1991, he performed the same act but insisted that the judges themselves shuffle the cards to prove that he used no stooges. The judges then awarded him first place.[6]
Green has appeared on the fourth World's Greatest Magictelevision special. He lives in Gothenburg, Sweden, and lectures internationally.
He appeared at TED in February 2005, where he performed his signature card routine.[7]
Privately, Green has worked 7 years as a doctor in Sweden[8].In 2014 Green suffered a stroke that prevented him from performing lectures in the following months, but has since fully recovered.[9]
