Andy Segal (born April 14, 1968), nicknamed "the Magic Man", is a trick-shot pool champion from Huntington, New York. He began as a professional nine-ball player in the 1990s, and was a regular on the Camel Pro Billiard Tour before switching to trick-shot competition in 2002. A full-time pro player since 2007, Segal holds four world records in artistic billiards. He is known for his television competition appearances on ESPN, and has won many such events, including Trick Shot Magic (2009, 2010 & 2014), the World Cup of Trick Shots (2006, 2008 & 2009), the WPA World Artistic Pool Championship (2007, 2011, 2012 & 2013), and the Masters Artistic Pool Championship (2005, 2007 & 2009). Segal also performs trick shot exhibitions all over the world, and in films and television.

Andy Segal was born and raised in Queens, New York. He attended Stuyvesant High School in New York City. He was an active member of the debating team, and towards the end of his high school years, became interested in pool.

After high school, he attended Carnegie Mellon University, where he studied math and computer science. While there, he spent some time teaching at the University of Pittsburgh Billiards Club, where he met his girlfriend and future wife Kimberly Segal. On September 2, 1995, the two were married and less than four years later had their daughter Jessica. They moved to Huntington, where they currently reside.

Segal is also a sleight of hand magician, and trains weekly at mixed martial arts.

In 1991, Segal graduated from university and went on to work in Wall Street in the IT department of Merrill Lynch. After about a year and a half, he started working for Sony Music, but then moved back into the financial world only one year later. Eventually he found himself back in Wall Street, working for Standard & Poor's. Segal was currently working there when the September 11 attacks occurred.

In 2005, Segal switched to a company closer to his home in Long Island, and started working for Adecco. He spent about two years there before he decided to go into pool full-time.

While working full-time in the computer field, Segal spend his evenings and weekends playing pool at Amsterdam Billiards in New York City. A few of the top players were from that area, and he worked with and learned from two of them, Tony Robles and George "Ginky" San Souci. He was an active player on the Camel Pro Billiard Tour, playing eight-ball, nine-ball, and ten-ball. He was also a regular on the Tri-State Tour and the Joss Tour. During these tournaments, he would often perform for players and spectators, doing trick-shot exhibitions and magic. Segal also performed at private parties around the New York City area, and while working with Blatt Billiards, performed a public exhibition at Grand Central Terminal. He met the great trick shot artist Mike Massey, and by the early 2000s, Segal was concentrating more on trick shots than nine-ball.

In 2002, Segal began playing in formal trick-shot competition, after being invited to complete in the titular 2003 North American Artistic Pool Championship was held (in October 2002 due to scheduling issues) at Hippo's Billiards in Utica, New York; Segal finished 4th, but stayed in that cue sports discipline. That final-four finish earned him an invitation to the 2003 WPA World Artistic Pool Championships in Kyiv, Ukraine. At that competition, Segal finished 5th overall, and won the gold medal in the bank/kick discipline, and tied with Mike Massey for the gold in the jump discipline.
