For the next ten years David casually enjoyed learning about magic for fun. It wasn’t until his parents took him to see David Copperfield at the Allstate Arena did David learn that magic could be real, and he began to take it more seriously. After sneaking backstage to meet Copperfield, David learned that there were local magicians he could learn from. After seeking them out, David was on his way within a year to be performing professionally in restaurants. It was these early days in restaurants that Ranalli learned how to perform, approach people, and all the nuances involved in being a master magician.
