This would probably be Willard Scott.
Immediately following Willard Scott's three-year-run as WRC-TV Washington, D.C.'s Bozo, the show's sponsors, McDonald's drive-in restaurant franchisees John Gibson and Oscar Goldstein (Gee Gee Distributing Corporation), created "Ronald McDonald the Hamburger-Happy Clown" and hired Scott to portray the character for their local commercials. Although the character's outfit was different from Ronald McDonald as he's known today, the McDonald's mascot evolved from Bozo.
