It all began in
the beginning. Who would ever believed that
Fielding West was literally made in Japan.
Conceived in the northern island of
Hokkaido, Japan. His father, a US Air Force
officer, wanted his first male child to be
born in America. He was transferred to
Boise, Idaho just-in-time for Fielding to
arrive.
Ten years later he was introduced to Magic
by his grandfather who was an amateur
magician. After high school, Fielding put
himself through college, paying for his
degree by performing in a band as a drummer
and doing magic shows for children. In 1973
while selling cars and going to graduate
school at night in Tallahassee, Florida, he
met an unknown comedy magician named Steve
Martin. That's right, the Steve
Martin, before he became famous. After
seeing Steve perform, he knew that he wanted
to be in show business for the rest of his
life. The concept of a comedy act began.
Three years later he moved to Jacksonville,
Florida and started his own Saturday morning
children's show on television with a Post/Newsweek station, WJ XT. The name of the
show was Magic Gang and was the highest
rated kids show in it's time slot for two
years. Not being satisfied with entertaining
only children, Fielding pursued a nightclub
act.
A year and a half after leaving television, he put together a successful
touring show called the Amazing Fielding And
Company. The show included illusions and
hypnosis, which for after two years led him
to Las Vegas. There he met Liberace who
helped Fielding get his first break by
showcasing his act at the Sahara Hotel.
Since then he has been working all over the
world as a featured star in large production
shows and as an opening act for major stars.
Fielding's career has now come full circle.
He has appeared on a multitude of comedy
specials and popular sitcoms. His talents go
far beyond stage and screen. Fielding is
also a successful comedy writer for other
magicians and comedians. He is well-known in
the corporate market as a fantastic
performer. In a course he created,
called Stagecraft 101, he manages speaking
seminars for young performers which teach
how to speak more effectively.
