Dick Clark died on Wednesday April 18, 2012. He was known to many as Americas Oldest Teenager. He was a force behind so many things like, television, radio and real estate. He was one of the greatest entrepreneurs. He had a degree in business from Syracuse University. He once said "I knew being a performer does not necessarily carry with it a lot of longevity. That's why I became a producer." He saw the opportunities he had and he took them. I remember when I was younger every New Year we would all watch the ball drop on New Years with Dick Clark. Dick Clark was the host of American Bandstand. The show first started out as Bandstand whenever rock'n'roll was first being established as the new pop music and Dick Clark was there on the ground floor. Whenever the show proved to promote very good artists they decided to make it national and call it American Bandstand. Dick Clark is going to be missed by so many people and his legacy will always live on.
