Web: The Original Amateur Hour

"OriginalAmateurHour.com" is the official website for the Original Amateur Hour, the radio and TV series that started the talent competition craze that continues to fascinate audiences across the world.

The show helped launch the careers of over 50 majors stars including Frank Sinatra.

Long-time producer and show veteran Albert Fisher launched the website in 2005 to help promote and sell an archival DVD of the show, but the site has become a place where many of the 1 million of the show's former performers can obtain a copy of their lost 15 minutes of fame, which is provided on VHS at no profit as a service to the OAH community.

But the site also showcases some rare TV and radio memorabilia.

Check out the site for some memories: www.OriginalAmateurHour.com
