Albert Pearce (July 25, 1898 - June 2, 1961, Newport Beach, California) was a singer, comedian and banjo player who became a popular personality on a large number of radio stations and several radio networks from 1928 to 1947.

The Al Pearce Show went through many changes because of an unstable relationship with sponsors and some of the networks. .Al Pearce started out his show business career with a skit featuring him working as a timid door-to-door salesman knocking on doors with much fear and hopeful that the customers would not be at home, because he did not want to face them. This skit became very popular on radio station KFRC in San Francisco and aided in the creation of the Al Pearce show.
