Some one at work said a famious skater over dosed,but she didn't catch his name, does any one know his name

Question

we watch all the skating comp. .

Answer 1

Yep, Christopher Bowman!

He was a two-time U.S. national champion and two-time World medalist.  He led a troubled life . . . in a way the possible drug over dose did not surprise me . . . but still his death is tragic.  

Bowman the Showman had so much natural skating talent.  I'll never forget how he sort of improvised his World's program - and still got the Bronze - ha!!  If you watched skating back then, you may remember that moment:

It's all the buzz in the skating world - and it hits home for "us" as he skated at our local rinks as a kid.  Very sad.

Answer 2

Yes, Christopher Bowman passed away yesterday, also known as "Bowman the Showman," who skated competively in the late 80's, early 90's.  He was a very fun skater to watch.  He will be missed.
