David Hira


Hira’s love for magic began when he was a child in Chicago when he saw his first live magician at the McCormick Place Convention Center. He instantly fell in love with magic and began performing shows in school. Watching master magician David Copperfield on television inspired his performances and he began to see that his magic was more than entertainment – it was proof that anything is possible! Hira’s performances across the globe have displayed his ability to inspire lives through magic.

For 17 years, the Employee of the Year Luncheon has been an opportunity to salute the North Texas hospital workforce, a crucial group of employees making a difference in the health of area residents. In the fashion of an awards show, recipients will be announced and asked to come to the stage to receive their honor.
