Ken Krenzel was born and raised in the Lower East Side of New York City. Ken pursued the study of psychology in college and eventually earned a Ph.D. He is well known as a leading exponent of expert sleight-of-hand with cards.

As a youngster, Ken became a charter member of F.A.M.E. (Future American Magical Entertainers).

He has published material in various magic journals: The Gen, Genii, M-U-M (where he was a regular columnist), Hugard's Magic Monthly, Phoenix, Hierophant, Kabala, Epilogue, New Jinx, Apocalpyse, and the Minotaur.

Harry Lorayne said "When Ken Krenzel performed the material in this book for me I knew then and there how good it was, and what a great contribution it'd be to the art I love - card magic".
