"He was a groundbreaking talent & life long friend and long time client, whose kindness and generosity was equaled by his influence and admiration to generations of actors and improvisational comedy throughout the world," Kass said.A staple of 80s comedy television, Hesseman played Dr. Johnny Fever in"WKRP in Cincinnati" from 1978 to 1982.
“I think maybe Johnny smokes a little marijuana, drinks beer and wine, and maybe a little hard liquor,” Hesseman told The New York Times in 1979 as he readied for one of three “Saturday Night Live” hosting gigs. “And on one of those hard mornings at the station, he might take what for many years was referred to as a diet pill. But he is a moderate user of soft drugs, specifically marijuana.”
During the 60s, before Hesseman was a silver screen regular, his improvisational skills took stage in San Francisco where he was part of the improv group The Committee. He also did his own stint as a real-life radio DJ.
