Let's Give A Rousing Cheer, 'Cause Howdy Doody's Here
-
Dead: Edward Kean. Who? TV writer. So? Wrote for "The Howdy Doody Show." Again, so? So he was the guy who came up with the exclamation, "cowabunga." And he wrote the theme song lyrics, which a lot of people can sing even if they never saw the show. He only wrote for the show for a few years, but that one word and one song is plenty of a legacy.
