Hi Lori, Since you mentioned ventriloquists it immediately brought to mind Terry Fator, last year's winner on "America's Got Talent."
For anyone who hasn't seen him, he was absolutely amazing! Not only a ventriloquist, but a singing ventriloquist with an amazing voice. Nobody ever thought to ventriloquist would win a nationwide talent show, but he did. You can see his audition on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hnVDHzUAj30 Apparently he now has a nightly show in Vegas. There are plenty of links to his other acts at the link above also. Check it out... you won't be disappointed.
