(CNN) -- Johnny Carson, host of NBC's The Tonight Show for nearly 30 years, died Sunday of emphysema. He passed away this morning, Carson's nephew, Jeffrey Sotzing, told CNN. Carson, a longtime smoker, was 79 and had announced in 2002 that he was suffering from the disease.
When Johnny died, he left roughly $200 million to his charity, The Johnny Carson foundation. At the peak of his show in 1991, he earned $25 million per year in salary which is equal to roughly $40 million in today's dollars. Carson won six Emmy Awards as well as the Governor's Award from the Television Academy and a Peabody Award. In 1987 he was inducted into the Television Academy Hall of Fame. Carson received the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Kennedy Center Honor.
