| This Chicago-born comedian was the youngest Second City "Mainstage" performer ever selected for the Troupe. In 1975, Belushi moved from Second City to NYC and became part of a new sketch comedy group known as Saturday Night Live where Belushi made "chizzburger, chizzburger" part of American rhetoric. However, it was Belushi's roles in both National Lampoon's Animal House (1975) and The Blues Brothers (1982) that crowned him as a comedic genius. Unfortunately, his career was cut short in 1982, when Belushi died in West Hollywood from a cocaine and heroin overdose.
