Early lifeClair was born Richard Jones in San Francisco, California. He served in the military for two years from 1955 to 1957. He never married or had children.[1] CareerIn the early 1970s, Clair performed husband-and-wife comedy routines for The Ed Sullivan Show and The Dean Martin Show with his writing partner Jenna McMahon.[1] Clair was a screenwriter for episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show and The Bob Newhart Show[2] in addition to his Emmy Award winning writing for the comedy-variety TV program The Carol Burnett Show.[3] With Jenna McMahon he wrote and produced the television sitcoms It's a Living, The Facts of Life, and Mama's Family. Cryonics involvementClair was active as an early member of the Cryonics Society of California in the 1960s. In 1982 he contributed $20,000 to the cryonics organization Trans Time so that a husband and wife could remain cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen. He was diagnosed with AIDS in 1986. When he was hospitalized in 1988 he faced opposition from the hospital and the State of California concerning his desire for cryonics treatment.[1] The ensuing court battle (Roe v.
