Actor, Magician, Television Host, Photographer, Producer. Voiceover Artist.

With all of these varied talents, it's a surprise Jonathan Levit hasn't added Juggler to the list. Perhaps the real magic comes from Levit not only having these talents, but proving successful in each.

At the age of 3, Levit experienced life as a world traveler, moving with his family to Tehran for several years. During those years, he would take in the culture from all over Europe and the world. Levit would eventually leave the country during the hostage crisis of 1979.

At the age of 8, Levit was bitten by the performing bug, and his life would never be the same. While back in America, Levit happened upon some old magic tricks in the basement of his home. The magic apparatus belonged to his father, Stephen Levit - also a successful magician as a young man. Jonathan first set foot on stage to perform his first magic act at the age of 12. It was obvious then that he would go on to use his natural energized personality and control over an audience to become a force within the entertainment industry. That same year, Levit appeared on "THE SALLY JESSY RAPHAEL SHOW" along with David Copperfield as a guest.

Levit continued his training as a magician, studying with some of the top minds in the art, honing his sleight of hand and performance skills, at the same time receiving numerous awards in close up, stage and street performing competitions.

Producing grabbed Levit's interest while in college at Syracuse University in New York. Levit would produce a variety of sold out shows on and off campus during his academic career, casting many performers that have gone on to become forces of their own in the entertainment fields.

Before leaving Syracuse, Levit was sent the inspiration he needed and would look back on to give him the push to pursue his true interest. Bob Costas wrote Levit a note telling him to "follow your dreams...you can't go wrong." He still holds that note from time to time as a reminder. This was the spark Levit needed, as he loaded up his car and set out for Hollywood.

Upon moving to Los Angeles, Levit immediately dove into training at various acting studios. It didn't take long for him to get into his groove once again. His first appearance on television came in the form of a starring role, opposite Ricky Jay, on "The X-Files". This role would pave the way for an adventurous and successful life as an actor and television host. Appearing in starring roles in top-rated television shows and commercial films, Jonathan has enjoyed a constant journey forward. As a television host, Levit has been swept all over the world, exploring some of the most intriguing and exciting stories imaginable.
While at home in Los Angeles, Levit continues to work as an actor, television host and voiceover artist and is often a welcomed performer at the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. Here, he has the opportunity to hone his other lifelong passion of performing magic. It's this balance of acting and magic that keeps Levit sharp - "both arts enhance each other."
As a producer, Levit is currently developing other projects for television and film, and continues to study and develop his acting and improvisation skills while working in the field that was always his passion.
As Will Rogers once said, "We are all here for a spell. Get all the good laughs you can." Jonathan is not only getting them, he's giving them. And he's having the time of his life.
