How I spent my summer vacation - Part 2...

Chip Martin - Waukesha Area businessman, celebrity, and 1/2 of local Ventriloquist Duo Brown & Martin:
“Every summer I make it a point to revisit my Martin Family Tree in New Jersey. It’s an Ash… In addition, Dale Brown (my business partner) and I are leaving for the International Ventriloquists Convention in Ft. Mitchell, KY, and we supposedly will have an interview with CNN when we get there. Can’t wait to spend 6 ½ hours in a car with 9 puppets, Dale, and his wife Leslie…While rehearsing last night, I confided in Leslie (I don’t usually tell her too much) that the highlight of last year’s convention was being interviewed by Candice Bergen - the daughter of the late, great Edgar Bergen. She interviewed me (us) for a “60 Minutes II” segment. During part of that interview, Candice held my hand - I told Dale he was to never paint that hand again!

When we get back to our Waukesha-area motivational/keynote speaker business, Dale-Brown Inc., (www.dale-brown.com) Dale and I will map out our next itinerary of motivational speeches. Dale (being married to Leslie) needs additional income and spends the balance of his free time acting as president of Brown & Martin, Inc., (www.bmpr.com) a multi-faceted marketing/public relations firm.

I’ve got a good life and it‘s going to be a great summer; interviews, travel, the perfect Minwax blend, first class hotel accommodations, people to attend to my every need, and my partner to “carry” the act wherever we go.”


If you would like to have your summer plans posted, email them and we’ll get them up for the world to see.
