This is not just about being famous or being funny. This is a grand testimonial of how passion, perseverance, and dedication always pays off. Oh what an inspiring, uplifting story!
Terry fator is one of the most talented artists I’ve ever seen: An amazing impressionist, great singer with perfect pitch and harmony, terrific showman, and ventriloquist extraordinaire - all rolled into one person!
Can appearing on National TV be good for your career? Of course! This guy has been performing for apparently over 20 years, is a huge name in private and corporate shows, yet not many people had heard about him until his appearance on “America’s Got Talent”.
I hope he hits big time - he simply deserves it. Only very special artists get their own category here on HowToThrowYourVoice.com - Terry Fator is obviously right up on the list.

You know I have to be honest. Jeff Dunham is the the only ventriloquist I ever really followed in the comedy circuit. I think terry might give him a good run for his money.
Great Site!

Mack,
Terry is very talented, but he is no match for Jeff Dunham’s stand-up or comedy skills.
Jeff is insanely talented as a comedian, whereas Terry has very little “on the spot” stand-up or “come-back” skills like Jeff.
Yes, he has insane impression and singing skills, but he is not nearly as funny as Jeff is.
Bottom line: Terry is more of an entertainer than a comedian. But Jeff Dunham is the ultimate comedian who *happens* to know ventriloquism.
No wonder why Terry has been a virtual unknown till now.

If Terry could learn to be as funny as Jeff, he would be unbeatable.
