HISTORICAL MARKER: EDGAR BERGEN

"Comedy This Exit" pulls over for a moment to recognize an Historical Marker in the world of comedy and ventriloquism.

Ventriloquist Edgar Bergen was born on February 16, 1903. 107 years later he is still remembered fondly, studied intently, discussed loudly, and remains the benchmark to which all ventriloquists are compared. Happy Birthday, Edgar!
