Joe Gandelman spent nearly 20 years in the newspaper business before he decided to dash it all and become a full-time ventriloquist. It was a change that today has him performing in the U.S. and in Canada. He performs at fairs, festivals, schools, corporate events, libraries, casinos, stage variety shows and has been on television. To adapt to the coronavirus, Joe also now does virtual shows for people all over the US and elsewhere.

​

Joe has been an inspiration and mentor to many beginning ventriloquists, and even structures a portion of his show to cater to teaching vent to an audience member. Joe has been everywhere and seen it all and we are proud to have his lectures featured on VU.
