Dr. Bill Cushman
Dr. Bill Cushman is a clinical psychologist living in South Florida with his wife and daughter. Like many, his interest in magic started as a young child and then he switched exclusively to mentalism about twenty-five years ago.
Over the last several years Dr. Bill has released 8 popular ebooks full of amazing ideas and routines. As might be expected given his career, many of his effects are of a psychological nature and/or include his knowledge of psychology applied to enhance the performance of mentalism. The reverse is also true; he often incorporates mentalism into seminars for colleagues and when running workshops for patients.
Dr. Bill has contributed to many important works in mentalism. You’ll find his essays and effects in Allen Zingg’s book Expanding Your Powers and Master Billet Course DVDs, Millard Longman’s multi-media CDROM Mind Reading With Billets: Acidus Novus, Banachek’s Psychological Subtleties 2, Stuart Cumberlands U.P.R., Kenton Knepper’s Mind Reading Course, Jerome Finley’s Thought Veil, Anthony Jaquin’s DVD The Trilby Connection, Paul Rohmany’s Mental Epic Compendium and the Mentalism Charity Project produced by ParaLabs, Secret Impressions.
Dr. Bill created "The Witches’ Almanac" and "Psi-Card" in collaboration with Rick Roth of Outlaw-effects. At present, his "library" of ebooks includes Mirabill, Mind Index, Suggestabilities, Telephone Bill, RhymeTime Sublime, The Fource, Subliminal Squares and his most recent release Trybil: AKA The Multi-Bob Pendulum Book. Of the latter Bob Cassidy wrote, “I finally had a chance to read Bill’s wonderful work on pendulums. Without a doubt, this is the best work ever written on the subject. I recommend it without reservation to anyone who is serious about this type of work.” Last but not least, Dr. Bill is profiled in Volume 4, Issue 23 of Jheff’s Journal Of The Mind.
