Album Notes

Hildy Higginbottom is a rambuntious, vivacious senior citizen ventriloquist dummy who, amid her comedy, has some pretty smart, clever, and wise things to say from time to time.

She has been a very popular member of professional ventriloquist Steve Engle's "Dusty & Company" puppet/dummy troupe for over 15 years.

Hildy is married to Cyrus Higginbottom. (She cured him of biting his nails after 50 years of marriage....by hiding his teeth!) They have a daughter and two grandchildren, whom Hildy says, "Have no hang-ups. Everything they own is on the floor!"

This is a first collection of her thoughts put on CD. She writes:

Here it is, my first CD! Thanks to Steve Engle and all those nice folks who've said, "Hildy, you should write a book or do a CD." To BOTH of you, here it is! Now I'm back in circulation. So you'll have to think of something else to keep me out of your kitchens!
