With a showman's flair, a comedian's wit, and the capacities of a bona fide Mentalist or thought reader, The Amazing Kreskin has, for 5 decades, dramatized the unique facets of the human mind, his own! His very name has become an integral part of pop culture throughout the world, invoked in Comedy Clubs, comic strips, print stories, and TV shows. When Johnny Carson played the character "Carnac the Magnificent" on the "Tonight Show", he was spoofing the Amazing Kreskin. Kreskin a favorite guest on Johnny's show and Merv Griffin has also been a regular on Howard Stern, David Letterman, and "Regis & Kathy Lee." Currently he makes frequent appearances on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," and "Mike Huckabee.".

In 2008, Tom Hanks produced and co-starred with John Malkovich in "The Great Buck Howard" which was fashioned after the Amazing Kreskin's life. To quote David Letterman, "Kreskin should sue the producers of the TV show, "The Mentalist" for stealing his act. He's the best mentalist in the world and he's not acting!" Kreskin can tell people things about themselves that only they or a close friend would know! For his performance at the theatre, Kreskin asks that his check be hidden by the audience somewhere in the theater during the show. He will attempt to find it and if he fails, he will forfeit his fee. Amazing Kreskin also offers $1,000,000.00 to anybody that can prove that he employs paid secret assistants or confederates in any phase of his program to help him perform his mentalist "effects."
