So many people are working in vaudeville today that I looked for three weeks to book enough acts for an hour bill and didn't have them until the night before we opened in Buffalo and money was no object!

I wish you could. A message in the closing credits dedicates The Muppet Movie (which featured Edgar and Charlie in their last screen appearance) to the memory and magic of Edgar. W.

Edgar John Bergen (February 16 1903 – September 30 1978) was an American actor and radio performer best known as a ventriloquist and also the father of actress Candice Bergen.
