OT: Mark Russell died, aged 90

[Marvin]

Just read it from WBFO.

Loved him. He was a semi big deal at one time. He came to little old Bradford at about the height of his popularity. The high school auditorium was being redone, so his show was put on in Pitt-Bradford's gym. He started out by saying, "Tonight I achieve my lifelong dream of performing in a gym in Bradford, PA, on a Monday night."

He used to do his shows at the Katherine Cornell theater at UB, at the Amherst campus.  I loved seeing that after I'd moved away from Buffalo because I used to go to classical piano recitals in that theater when I was a student there.  

He was funny, smart, talented.

He was absolutely brilliant. And so charming. RIP.

If the Simpsons have satirized you, you know you've made it.
