REGULARS Gallery 2. Don Travarelli, from South Philly, watched American Bandstand in 1961 and spotted Bunny Gibson dancing. In an online page marking her 68th birthday on Nov. 23, 2011, Bandstand "documentarian" Charles W. Amann III posted: "The name Scaldeferri and American Bandstand go hand-in-hand. Clark "was very all-American, handsome, and nice, a father figure to us," she recalled. Clark decided to pitch the show to ABC president Thomas W. Moore, and after some negotiations the show was picked up nationally, becoming American Bandstand on August 5, 1957. Wagon Train Website,
