TV legend Dick Clark died from a heart attack on Wednesday morning, his rep has confirmed. He was 82 years old.
Clark had suffered a stroke in 2004, but he continued to make television appearances over the past few years, most notably on his New Year's Eve special from Times Square in New York City.
Clark won four Emmys during his career, along with a Daytime Emmy Lifetime Achievement Award and a Peabody Award.
He is survived by wife Kari Wigton and his three children, Richard, Duane, and Cindy.

Our photographers spotted Dick Clark out and about in his wheelchair last night. Dick's been keeping a low profile since his stroke a few years back, so we're always happy for any chance to spend some time with America's oldest teenager.
