NORFOLK, Neb. - Soon, people who may be too young to remember Johnny Carson will enjoy learning about the late comedian by touring the renovated Johnny Carson gallery at the Elkhorn Valley Museum in Norfolk.
For almost 20 years, the museum has hosted a collection of items belonging to Carson, who lived in Norfolk from 1933 until after he graduated from high school in 1943. Carson came to fame as host of NBCâs âTonight Show,â a position he held for 30 years.
Carson and his foundation have donated millions of dollars to numerous organizations in Norfolk and the area. In 2001, museum officials asked Carson if he would donate one or two items to be included in an exhibit in his honour. A short time later, he announced he was closing his office in Burbank, California, and sending the museum all of the artifacts on display.
