MARK NIZER is a juggler extraordinaire, and there's simply no denying that fact once you're able to watch him work his artistry up close and personal. Whether he's doing something relatively simplistic such as your basic three balls gliding through the air, he manages to add a twist, like catching one on his neck, or on the back of his foot, and flipping it right back into succession with the rest. He's one of the best, if not the best, at what he does, and this past Saturday morning (September 17, 2011), he took to the stage of Washington University as part of their Ovations for Young People series to show why he's considered such. He managed to dazzle my entire family, including my 5-year old son, so you know the guy is all he's cracked up to be. And he adds a wrinkle to his act by doing some of his stunt work in 3-D.

Since winning the International Jugglers Championship in 1990, Mark Nizer has emerged as the quintessential juggler's juggler, combining deft comedic wit with new tricks and invented technologies that seem to make the impossible suddenly possible. He has juggled while hang-gliding. He has juggled underwater with sharks. He has juggled jellyfish and - once, briefly - cats.
