David Johansen, flamboyant New York Dolls frontman, dies at 75

As I share this heartbreaking news, I’m compelled to express my deep sorrow as I recall the life of Johnasen, a beloved figure in the world of movies. I learned from various sources that he passed away peacefully at his home in Staten Island, N.Y. His daughter, Leah Hennessy, confirmed this sad news.

Johnasen, who had been battling Stage 4 cancer and a broken back for some time, as detailed on his fundraiser page at Sweet Relief, a charity organization for musicians, left us too soon. His spirit and contributions will live on in our hearts and memories.
