What's Your Favorite Memory of Dick Clark?

Dick Clark, a music industry pillar, host of the ever popular "Rockin' Eve" show, producer and well loved TV host, died today at 82.

His agent said in a statement that Clark died following a heart attack, according to ABC News. 

Clark had a major role in many aspects of American popular culture, even beyond music, ever since he started hosting "American Bandstand" in 1952. 

But he reached a younger generation, too, especially while he co-hosted "Rockin' Eve" with Ryan Seacrest, where contemporary artists performed and millions of Americans could watch the ball drop in New York City on New Year's Eve.
