Harvey Korman dies at 81
Another sad story in Hollywood! After Sydney Pollack’s death, the Great Ripper felt the need to take another star: Harvey Korman.
Four months ago Harvey suffered a rupture of an abdominal aortic aneurysm and last night he died after some complications from the rupture. He was 81.
Harvey had won 4 Emmy Awards for his contribution to “The Carol Burnett Show“. He gained attention with his appearance on “The Danny Kaye Show”. The most memorable film role of Harvey Korman was as the outlandish Hedley Lamarr in the 1974 Western satire “Blazing Saddles“, directed by Mel Brooks.
