Johnny Carson, the legendary "King of Late Night TV" who dominated the medium's nether hours for three decades, was born in Corning, Iowa, but moved with his family to nearby Norfolk, Nebraska when he was eight years old. It was in Norfolk, where he lived until he was inducted into the US Navy in 1943, that he started his show business career. At age 14, Carson began appearing as the magician "The Great Carsoni" at local venues.

In 1962, Carson was chosen by NBC to succeed the controversial Jack Paar and his _"Jack Paar Show, The" (1957)_ Paar had decided to quit the show and begin a once-a-week show for NBC in prime time on Friday nights. Carson would never be controversial like Paar, preferring to good-naturedly skewer politicians and celebrities in his opening monologue and staging stunts such as the on-stage marriage of retro-singer Tiny Tim to his Miss Vicky in 1969. His popularity with the late-night audience became so great, and the income from advertising on his show so profitable, that in 1967, NBC had to lure Johnny back to "The Tonight Show" after a walkout with a three-year contract guaranteeing him a minimum of $4 million. In the early 1970s, TV Guide reported that Carson was earning $2 million a year, making him the highest paid TV entertainer ever, a record he repeatedly surpassed, pulling down a then-record $5 million annual salary in the 1980s.

Carson created a sense of intimacy with his guests and audiences that made him the unvanquished "King of Nighttime TV." Countless talk shows hosted by the likes of Joey Bishop and Dick Cavett and other non-talk show programs were launched against him year after year only to fail, with the notable exception of "ABC News Nightline" (1980) halfway through his reign. Aside from his loyal audience, Carson was beloved by his guests and the legions of young comics whose careers were launched on "The Tonight Show," colloquially known as "The Johnny Carson Show." His tempestuous love-life, which included two high-profile divorces, became the fodder of such celebrity staples as "The National Enquirer" and later "People" Magazine, and he was even the subject of a roman a clef pulp novel in the early 1970s. There have been at least seven published biographies of Carson.

After brief stints on radio stations in Lincoln and Omaha, Nebraska, Carson's career was exclusively in television, starting with work at Nebraska TV stations in the late 1940s which preceded his 1951-53 skit program "Carson's Cellar" (1953) on Los Angeles station KNXT-TV. Attracting the attention of the industry, he was hired as a comedy writer for "The Red Skelton Show" (1951) which provided him with a career breakthrough when Skelton was injured backstage and Carson substituted for him, delivering his first monologue before a national audience. This led to a stint as the host of the quiz show "Earn Your Vacation" (1954) and the variety showcase "The Johnny Carson Show" (1955) in 1955-56. The man who would soon become the most famous late-night TV personality in history hosted the daytime game show "Who Do You Trust?" (1958) from 1957-62, teaming up with long-time sidekick Ed McMahon in 1958.

Before his triumph on "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" (1962), Carson tried his hand at dramatic acting, appearing in "Three Men on a Horse" (episode # 1.29) during the inaugural season of "Playhouse 90" (1956) in 1957. In 1960, he shot a pilot for a prime-time TV series, "Johnny Come Lately," that was not picked up by a network. Carson had sat in for "Tonight Show" host Jack Paar in 1958, and when Paar left the show four years later, NBC chose Carson as his replacement, taking over the cat bird seat on Oct. 2, 1962. "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" became a major phenomenon in American pop culture in the 1960s and beyond. Sidekick McMahon's "Heeeeere's Johnny!!!" introduction of Carson became a cultural catchphrase, memorably reprised by Jack Nicholson in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980). Woody Allen's character in the Best Picture Academy Award-winning Annie Hall (1977), stand-up comic Alvy Singer, is recognized in front of a movie theater by a street tough due to his appearance on "The Tonight Show."

Aside from his banter with celebrities, he amused his audience for 30 years with broadly played skit comedy by his "Mighty Carson Players" and his spoof clairvoyant "Carnac the Magnificent." A master at quick repartee, Carson was a relaxed host with a pleasant, ingratiating manner and was quite funny as a skit comedian, but it was the monologue in which Carson's comic genius flourished. He made memorable put-downs of politicians and celebrities, a format still used by his successors Jay Leno and David Letterman and legions of comics who came after him.

But it was his ironic self-awareness that made him radically different from such monologists as Bob Hope. When a joke bombed during his monologues, Carson would do a wounded double-take as the audience jeered, fully aware of the awfulness of the joke he had just unloaded. Following these bombs with a sly, self-deprecating remark engendered a sense of intimacy between Carson and his fans. Carson typically moved the blame for a groaner onto his joke writers, which created a "We're in this together" camaraderie with his audience that spawned a whole new era of self-referential comedy, perhaps best epitomized by Letterman, the man Carson wanted to succeed him on "The Tonight Show."

A liberal in the increasingly liberal age of the 1960s and '70s, so powerful were his opening monologues that by the early 1970s, he could actually affect society at large outside of the pop culture realm. A joke about a shortage of industrial grade toilet paper caused a national panic and a run on all grades of t.p., with a resulting shortage of the product about which he had kidded. Playing off current events such as the Watergate crisis, his comic evisceration of President Richard Nixon was credited with some critics as exerting such a drag on Nixon's approval rating that it made his resignation possible, if not inevitable. After Carson's reign, it became increasingly de rigueur for politicians to appear on late-night TV talk shows and bear the a host's jibes in order to stump for votes.

Carson's connection with the American culture was so absolute, it contributed to one of his few failures, the rejection of "The Tonight Show" in the early 1980s by British audiences who could not understand the topical references of his monologues. And his audience's identification of Johnny with the "Tonight Show" effectively stopped him from work in other media. In the mid-1960s, Carson's agents wanted to trade on his vast popularity to position him in motion pictures as the "New Jack Lemmon," but Carson never made the foray outside of television. His connection with the movie industry remained his hosting of three generations of stars and his memorable turns as the host of five Academy Awards telecasts from 1979 to 1984. In that role, he generally is regarded as the best successor to long-time Oscar host Bob Hope. He did stretch his wings as a producer, his Carson Productions producing TV pilots and series, TV movies and "Late Night with David Letterman" (1982) in addition to his own talk show.

The six-time Emmy-winner considered a follow-up to "The Tonight Show," but nothing caught his interest and he spent the last decade of his life in a quiet retirement in Malibu, California, as befitted his private nature. Thus, it was "The Tonight Show" that remains his creative legacy. Unlike every other TV star, he remained on top until the very end, the show winning its ratings period every year for 30 years. When Carson retired, his last appearance was one of the highest rated late night TV shows ever.

"I have an ego like anybody else," Carson told The Washington Post in 1993, "but I don't need to be stoked by going before the public all the time." Frederick De Cordova, the producer of "The Tonight Show" throughout Carson's 30-year run, believed that Johnny never pressured himself to launch a follow-up as he already had achieved unprecedented success on TV. "He is one of a kind, was one of a kind," De Cordova said in 1995. "I don't think there's any reason for him to try something different."

Carson, who was suffering from emphysema and had quadruple bypass surgery in 1999, died peacefully at the age of 79 on the morning of Sunday, January 23, 2005, surrounded by his family and friends. In terms of career longevity, popularity, peer respect and impact on the medium, Carson ranks with Lucille Ball and 'Jackie Gleason' as one of the greatest stars of television. Not only will Johnny be sorely missed, he WAS sorely missed by his legions of fans after his retirement.

When Carson announced his impending retirement, there was fierce competition between David Letterman and Jay Leno to be Carson's "Tonight Show" successor. Leno eventually won the coveted spot, and an angry Letterman moved over to rival network CBS to host a competing show. Many, including Leno, took Carson's walk-on appearance on "Late Show with David Letterman" (1993) as a signal from Carson that he preferred Letterman to Leno. (Carson has never appeared on Leno's show to congratulate his "Tonight Show" successor).

In January 2005, one-time "Late Show with David Letterman" (1993) producer Peter Lassally revealed that Carson occasionally contributed material for Letterman's monologues. What he missed most in retirement was performing his own "Tonight Show" monologues, according to Lassally.

In addition to his walk-on appearance on the "Late Show with David Letterman" (1993) stage, he also appeared on another episode in a filmed segment where Letterman has car problems while visiting Hollywood and Carson drives past, shaking his head in disapproval.

Bob Hope, commenting on Carson's retirement, said it was like "a head falling off Mt. Rushmore. He's had a profound impact on millions of lives. He changed people's sleeping habits, sex habits and their midnight eating habits."

He made one foray into movies - he played himself in the1964 Connie Francis-starring "Looking for Love." The M-G-M flick didn't do that well, and Carson was never seen in movies again - except for those contemporary films where "The Tonight Show" is playing on a TV set in the scene.

He was a fan of Elvis Presley.

"If life was fair, Elvis would be alive and all the impersonators would be dead."

"People will pay more to be entertained than educated."

"If it weren't for Philo T. Farnsworth, inventor of the television, we'd still be eating frozen radio dinners."

"New York is an exciting town where something is happening all the time, most of it unsolved."

"The Hollywood tradition I like best is called sucking up to the stars."

"Happiness is your dentist telling you it won't hurt and then having him catch his hand in the drill."

"It's silly to have as one's sole object in life just making money, accumulating wealth. I work because I enjoy what I'm doing, and the fact that I make money at it -- big money -- is a fine-and-dandy side fact. Money gives me just one big thing that's really important, and that's the freedom of not having to worry about money. I'm concerned about values -- moral, ethical, human values -- my own, other people's, the country's, the world's values. Having money now gives me the freedom to worry about the things that really matter." - December 1967 Playboy interview

"Find me any performer anywhere who isn't egocentric. You'd better believe you're good, or you've got no business being out there." - December 1967 Playboy interview

On late-night television programs: "We're more effective than birth control pills."

"I have an ego like anybody else, but I don't need to be stoked by going before the public all the time." - 1993 Washington Post interview

"I'm often asked, 'What is your favorite moment during the 30 years you hosted The Tonight Show?' I really don't have just one. The times I enjoyed the most were the spontaneous, unplanned segments that just happened, like Ed Ames' infamous 'Tomahawk Toss' that produced one of the longest laughs in television history. When these lucky moments happen, you just go with them and enjoy the experience and high of the moment."

"I wanted the show to make the most of being the last area of television that the medium originally was supposed to be - live, immediate entertainment. I decided the best thing I could do was forget trying to do a lot of pre-planning. It all boiled down to just going out there and being my natural self and seeing what would happen."

On the spontaneous nature of "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" (1962): "I never analyze it. Analyzing it would just be a waste of time. I just go out and do it. Like George Burns said, 'If it gets a laugh, it's funny.'"

On the why "The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson" (1962) avoided controversial topics: "I think it would be a fatal mistake to use my show as a platform for controversial issues. I'm an entertainer, not a commentator. If you're a comedian your job is to make people laugh."

On his public persona: "I'm basically not a public person. It's like [Jackie Gleason] said, 'If you go out all the time to restaurants and so on, people say, "Oh, he's everywhere," and if you stay home and eat dinner, they say, "Oh, he's a recluse."'"

On speculation that ne was anti-social: "I couldn't care less what anybody says about me. I live my life, especially my personal life, strictly for myself. I feel that is my right, and anybody who disagrees with that, that's his business. Whatever you do, you're going to be criticized. I feel the one sensible thing you can do is try to live in a way that pleases you. If you don't hurt anybody else, what you do is your own business." - Playboy Magazine interview (conducted by Alex Haley), December 1967.

To frequent guest Joan Embery, of The San Diego Zoo, after the marmoset she had brought had climbed on Carson's head and urinated: "I'm glad you didn't bring a baby elephant."

On the secrecy behind his nightly monologue: "It's always been a ritual with me. I don't show it to Freddie [executive producer Frederick De Cordova] or Ed [sidekick Ed McMahon] or anybody. If you don't show it to anybody, then you get fresh reactions."

"I can empathize with President [George Bush]. I know what it feels like having a young guy waiting around for you to keel over." - May 1991

"In Los Angeles, the big story is that Police Chief Daryl Gates announced his retirement. It'll be sometime next year. Why can't a guy just retire without making a big deal of it?" - July 1991

"If variety is the spice of life, marriage is the big can of leftover Spam." John William Carson was also known as Johnny Carson. John William Carson was born on 23.

     MARY CARSON:

CARSON. The first member of the family, of which Isaac and Cornelius Carson are honored representatives, emigrated from his native land,
Ireland, to America, and made a settlement in this county, taking out a patent for land in Fallowfield township over one hundred years ago.
Subsequently he traded a part of the original farm for a shot-gun, in order to induce a traveler who had the gun to settle near him in the
wilderness. He died on this property, which has been in the possession of the family ever since.

John Carson, his son, was born, reared and educated on the home place in Fallowfield township, and when a young man married Elizabeth Springer,
of the same locality. After marriage they settled on the homestead, where Mr. Carson carried on general farming and stock raising. Their
children were Mary (Mrs. Abraham Van Voorhis), Margaret (Mrs. Parker Carson), Elizabeth (Mrs. Noah Fry), John S. (father of subject), Sarah
A. (Mrs. H. Allman) and Caroline (Mrs. M. Hazen). The parents of this family both died on the home place, and lie side by side in the Speers
burying ground. They were members of the Speers Baptist Church; in politics Mr. Carson was a Democrat, and he held various township
offices. Mary Carson was born on 17. Mar. 1816. She was the daughter of John Carson and Elizabeth Springer. Mary Carson married Abraham Frye Van Voorhis, son of Daniel Van Voorhis and Mary Frye, on 24. Mar. 1835.
Mary Carson and Abraham Frye Van Voorhis appeared on the census of 22. Aug. 1850 at Carroll Twp., Washington County, Pennsylvania; real estate value 9,000.00. Mary Carson died on 2. Apr. 1867 at age 51. She was buried at Van Voorhis Cemetery near, Hindsboro, Douglas County, Illinois.
