History Notes:
  • Dick Clark (1929 - 2012) was an American radio and television personality, television producer and film actor, as well as a cultural icon.  He is best known for hosting American Bandstand from 1956 to 1989, and for Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve, transmitted from New York’s Times Square. ---  (Wikipedia, “Dick Clark”) retrieved 2/13/2121.

  • It was in the Pasadena Rose Parade that the Bayer Advanced float was a tribute to King Arthur’s Camelot with two knights of the Round Table jousting on a bed of more than 10,000 live roses, including the colorful cream-with-cherry-blushed-burgundy-petaled variety Dick Clark.  It made its world debut in the parade and won the 2011 All-America Rose Grandiflora Selection. --- www.redlandsdailyfacts.com/2015/01/26/add-award-winning-dick-clark-and-julia-child-roses-to-your-garden” -- retrieved 2/13/2021.
