    Dick Clark, the music industry maverick, longtime TV host and powerhouse producer who changed the way we listened to pop music with American Bandstand, and whose trademark Rockin' Eve became a fixture of New Year's celebrations, died today at the age of 82, ABC News has learned.

    Clark, who suffered a serious stroke in 2004 but returned to the airwaves, reportedly died from a heart attack.</snip>
