Childhood and Early Years
Mat Franco is a 33-year-old actor who was born on May 10, 1988. He was born in the town of Johnston, Rhode Island, in the United States. He was raised by his two older brothers.
Speaking on his upbringing, he remembers seeing magic on TV when he was four years old and begging his parents to acquire him a magic set. His grandma, Eleanor Campellone, was one of his main mentors and first assistants when he began doing magic in his kindergarten class. When he was too little to read for himself, she would read magic instructions to him.
Similarly, one of his best memories is of him and his grandmother attempting to duplicate a magician they had seen on television by making cards appear out of thin air. They cut a hole in a black curtain and hung it in the living room. His grandma hid on the other side of the curtain and passed cards to him through it. His grandfather was watching him play, and he had no idea how the cards were appearing because “grandma must have stepped outside for a minute.”
As a child, he continued to study magic and performed whenever he had the opportunity. He gathered enough money from local acts when he was 12 years old to fly to Las Vegas and study performance art with some of his idols, including Jeff McBride.
In terms of his education, he graduated from Johnston High School in 2006, and during his senior year, he served as captain of the wrestling team. He went on to the University of Rhode Island, where he earned a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a minor in Communication Studies.
