Bio

John Edward is an American author and television personality best known for his TV shows Crossing Over with John Edward and John Edward Cross Country (known in South Africa as John Edward: Psychic), which are premised on him performing as a psychic medium who attempts to communicate with the spirits of the audience members' deceased relatives.

Born in Glen Cove, New York, Edward says he was convinced at a young age that he could become a psychic. 

After writing his first book on the subject in 1998, Edward became a well-known and controversial figure in the United States through his shows broadcast on the SciFi channel beginning in July 2000 and Woman's Entertainment Television (WE) since May 2006.

Critics of Edward believe he performs the mentalist technique of cold reading, and does not have psychic powers.
