Tim Conway, who won four Emmy Awards for his work on Carol Burnett's TV variety show, has died. He was 85.

May 14, 2019

A native of Ohio, Conway credited his Midwestern roots for putting him on the right path to laughs, with his deadpan expression and innocent, simple-minded demeanor. The show operated with just five writers, one producer, one director and without network interference. The ensemble cast surrounding the redheaded star included Vicki Lawrence and Lyle Waggoner.

Besides the four Emmys he won with Burnett , he won Emmys for guest appearances in 1996 for “Coach” and in 2008 for “30 Rock.” He also found success in the 1980s in a series of comedy videos based on an oddly short character named Dorf. Among them were “Dorf on Golf” and “Dorf Goes Fishing.”
