American Bandstand started as a local Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA show known only as Bandstand. As the Philadelphia area (only) show, it was hosted by Bob Horn from 1952 until mid 1956, when Mr. Horn was discharged. Tony Mammarella, the show's producer, temporarily filled in as host until they signed Dick Clark. Through the personal efforts of Dick Clark, the Network was persuaded to air the show nationally.
The show was renamed from "Bandstand" to "American Bandstand" in 1957, coincident with it becoming a nationally broadcast program. Dick Clark was the host at that time (1957) and remained the host until early 1989. The last six months of the show's long run was hosted by David Hirsch. The lights went off for good in late 1989 with David Hirsch at the helm.
