Sphere: Related ContentChristopher Bowman, the former U.S. figure skating champion dubbed “Bowman the Showman” for his flair on the ice, died Thursday of a possible drug overdose, authorities said. He was 40.
Bowman was pronounced dead at 12:06 p.m., said Coroner’s Lt. Joe Bale, who wasn’t immediately able to provide more details about the possible drug overdose. Bowman’s body was found at a motel in the North Hills section of Los Angeles, and an autopsy was planned for this weekend, Bale said.

Born in Hollywood, on March 30, 1967, Bowman had a part in the TV series “Little House on the Prairie” for one season and appeared in dozens of commercials. He got into coaching after his skating career was finished, and the Free Press said he had lived in the Detroit area from 1995 until last February.
Recently, Bowman had returned to acting. He had a role as an assistant coach in the upcoming Brian J. De Palma-directed movie “Down and Distance” starring Gary Busey.
Bowman had a daughter with his former wife, Annette Bowman, according to the Free Press.

I trained at the same little rink in Van Nuys with Christopher Bowman back in the 70’s and 80’s, along with several skaters who were, or would be, national and international champions. Christopher had more natural talent, charisma and energy than anyone else. Even as a kid he had “it”. I was crushed to hear that he had passed away. I hope he’s popping off triple axels in Heaven.
