Dear Ventriloquism Enthusiast,


If you love the Art of Ventriloquism and want the next greatest information source dealing with the history of Ventriloquism and how it survived in the last century, then you're going to love what you are about to read.


As you read every word of this webpage, I’m going to tell you about a wonderful source of information that is truly fantastic. Something so great that I don't know where to begin to describe it, but here goes.


You see, this informational source was actually written in 1970...... long before the modern day computers and the Internet. But I'm getting ahead of myself, let me tell how this came to be.



A Few Months Ago...
 



I was talking to a working professional ventriloquist and he told me that back in 1970, he wrote his Master's thesis on Ventriloquism. Being a ventriloquism enthusiast, of course I was interested. I asked if he had a copy and when he said he did, I asked if he could send me a copy. He agreed.


A few days later I received the thesis. As I turned the pages to start reading, I was floored. There was a handwritten comment to this author complimenting him on this endeavor and it was signed by none other than Edgar Bergen!!!


Now I couldn't wait to start reading this informational manuscript that was highly endorsed by Edgar Bergen. I sat down immediately and read the entire thesis. I thought I already knew a lot about the history of Ventriloquism during the last century, but as I was reading, I was learning new information I had not known. I was also amazed with how many countless hours of researching must have gone into this comprehensive wealth of information about Ventriloquism.


Once again, this valuable reference guide was done before the modern day computers and the Internet. Plus, this thesis was way before any of the popular books of today, such as “I Can See Your Lips Move”, “Dummy Days” or “Other Voices”, just to name a few. I might also add, this easy to read thesis is filled with information that none of today's books have in them.
 



"So, who is the person that gathered all this information,
scouring libraries across the nation and
had correspondence with people all over the world?"

 



Before I tell you who he is, let me tell you a little about his history. This ventriloquist got the “bug” at 12 years old when he started going to see the Paul Winchell show at the ABC Studios in New York City back in 1958. Every Sunday he would go to the show and immediately he wanted to learn ventriloquism. With the help and teaching of Paul Winchell, he learned ventriloquism.
 



He got to be such good friends with Mr. Winchell, that he would hang out backstage and even play around with Jerry Mahoney and Knucklehead Smiff.

 




In 1969, he ended up getting an Assistantship to attend Ole Miss (University of Mississippi). For his Master’s thesis he decided to write about the art he loved, Ventriloquism. Scouring libraries across the nation and corresponding with people all over the world, he gathered the information to write his Master’s thesis (and remember, this was many, many years prior to the Internet).


Today, after thirty years as a veteran professional ventriloquist, the world knows him as Kenny Warren.  Kenny has been seen nationally on every major television network as well as being one of the best known opening acts for many of America's leading headline performers such as Jerry Seinfeld, Rosie O'Donnell, Bette Midler, David Brenner, Richard Lewis, Robert Klein and the late Rodney Dangerfield, Richard Pryor and Andy Kaufman to name a few!

Although widely known for his adult performances, Kenny was awarded "Best Children's Performer" by General Audience. He was the only ventriloquist chosen to participate in The Miller Lite Comedy Riot Competition as well as a guest appearance at the prestigious New York Friars Club Roast.


Kenny is one of America's only lecturers and academic authorities on the Art and History of Ventriloquism.  He titled his Master's thesis, “The Revival Of Ventriloquism in America”. And I can tell you that it's a masterpiece of thoroughly researched information on the Art of Ventriloquism unlike any other.  In fact, Kenny stayed good friends with Paul Winchell and when he read the thesis, he told Kenny he loved it.

Through correspondence, Kenny was able to send his thesis to Dennis Alwood, who at the time was Edgar Bergen's personal assistant, and Dennis gave the thesis to Edgar Bergen. Here's what Bergen wrote (and you can see a copy of this comment in the thesis written in his own handwriting):

 


“To Kenneth Warren-

This is by far the most complete treatise on Ventriloquism I have ever read. And thank you for the many nice things you said about me.

All the best to you in your future endeavors.

Sincerely,
Edgar Bergen


P.S. Good work – you guessed where the talent has hidden all these years,
Charlie McCarthy"

 




Well, I have to tell you that after I read this treatise on Ventriloquism, I called Kenny and told him I loved it. Kenny asked if I thought that anyone would be interested in his work and I yelled, “OF COURSE they would!”


In fact, I personally think that “The Revival Of Ventriloquism in America” is essential for anyone interested in Ventriloquism and especially collectors of ventriloquial items. This will surely become a piece of Ventriloquism history.
