… Ed McMahon, TV Announcer/Host
From CNN: “Ed McMahon, the longtime pitchman and Johnny Carson sidekick whose “Heeeeeeerre’s Johnny!” became a part of the vernacular, has died. McMahon passed away peacefully shortly after midnight at the Ronald Reagan/UCLA Medical Center, his publicist, Howard Bragman, said Tuesday
Though he later hosted a variety of shows — including “Star Search” and “TV’s Bloopers and Practical Jokes,” McMahon’s biggest fame came alongside Carson on “The Tonight Show,” which Carson hosted from 1962 to 1992. The two met not long after Carson began hosting the game show “Who Do You Trust?” in 1957.”
