Host and TV producer Dick Clark has died. He was 82.
It was first reported by the news Wednesday afternoon. A rep told the site that Clark
underwent surgery Tuesday night and suffered a "massive" heart attack following
the procedure.
Clark started his career as a radio announcer at WRUN in Utica, N.Y., when
he was 17. His long-running show, "American Bandstand," was on the air from 1957-1989.
"Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve" began in 1972 and continues to this day
with Ryan Seacrest.
Clark launched the American Music Awards in 1973. He became a Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame inductee in 1993.
Clark suffered a stroke in December 2004. He continued performing even after
the stroke, even though it had affected his ability to speak and walk.
