- John_W._Cooper abstract "John W. Cooper (1873-1966) was an African-American ventriloquist of the early 20th century. Born in 1873 in New York City, Cooper experienced a very difficult childhood. His parents John W. Cooper Sr. and Annie Morris originally lived in the southern part of the United States; John Cooper Sr. was originally from Beaufort, South Carolina, and Annie Morris was originally from Georgia. In 1871, the family decided to move North. Before his thirteenth birthday, both of Cooper's parents died. The same year as the passing of his parents, John W. Cooper attended Professor Dorsey’s Institute in Brooklyn, New York, and developed an interest in ventriloquism. While in school at Professor Dorsey's Institute, Cooper took on a job as an exercise boy at Sheepshead Bay Race Track in New York. While working at Sheepshead Bay Race Track, Cooper met a white ventriloquist who introduced him to his first exposure of this form of entertainment. The ventriloquist attempted to convince and frighten Cooper into believing that the horses he was working with could talk. This was one of the various examples that many speculate prompted Cooper to become a ventriloquist. Significantly, he was the first black ventriloquist on the predominantly white vaudeville circuit, and later in his life taught ventriloquism to Shari Lewis.".
