Ventriloquism Was A Part of His Life
Having the great acting and entertainment skills that led him to have a successful career, Don Knotts used to be a ventriloquist. Before being the big-time actor, Knotts performed a lot of gigs in different places all over his town and he did that for a living. He was known to be working with his puppet, who had the name Danny Matador – his dummy had a nickname “Hooch”. A few years after doing ventriloquism, Knotts eventually stopped performing acts as he realized that it was not the one for him.
