SUMMARY:A Ventriloquist On The Radio - The Amazing Career Of Edgar Bergen
DESCRIPTION:Edgar Bergen certainly had one of the most unique careers in American show business history!  Along with his “partner” the inimitable Charlie McCarthy\, Bergen became the most influential and popular ventriloquists in history. More amazingly\, he actually had his greatest success on the radio! \nThink about that for just a moment! How would enthralled radio listeners even KNOW that they were listening to a ventriloquist instead of just two human comedy team partners? But Bergen and McCarthy were so popular that their fame actually played a key role in the  legendary Orson Welles “War Of The Worlds” hoax! W. C. Fields\, oe of the most popular comics in the films of the 1930s hated children. His hatred spilled over into a legendary “feud” with Charlie McCarthy! \nThis warm\, hilarious and loving one-of-a-kind multimedia presentation combines rare film clips with great inside stories explaining how Edgar Bergen became so famous – as a ventriloquist on the radio! \n
