Timeline
Two years after his death, The Second City founded the Harold Ramis Film School in his honor, the first film school to focus solely on film comedy (2016).

He was awarded a star on the St. Louis Walk of Fame at 6338 Delmar Boulevard in St. Louis, Illinois on May 16, 2004.
Said in an interview that his working relationship with actor Bill Murray ended while filming Groundhog Day (1993) due to differing views on what the film should be about (Murray wanted it to be more philosophical, Ramis wanted it to be a comedy). Ramis also cites that Murray's real life personal problems at the time (specifically the ending of his first marriage) was having a ripple effect on his behavior at work as another factor in the unfortunate ending of their working relationship.
Had three children: daughter Violet Ramis (born in 1977), with ex-wife Anne Ramis, and sons Julian Arthur Ramis (born on May 10, 1990) and Daniel Ramis (Daniel Hayes Ramis) (born on August 10, 1994), with wife Erica Mann.
Had no involvement with National Lampoon's European Vacation (1985), as he was busy working on Ghostbusters (1984).
The proton packs worn in Ghostbusters (1984) were much heavier than they looked, and some were heavier than others depending on what a scene demanded while filming. According to director Ivan Reitman, none of the actors enjoyed wearing the packs, but Harold complained the least (Reitman would not say which actor complained the most).
Had appeared with Bill Murray in four films: Stripes (1981), Ghostbusters (1984), Ghostbusters 2 (1989) and Groundhog Day (1993).
After that, he worked as writer with Ivan as producer on Meatballs (1979), Stripes (1981), Ghostbusters (1984) and Ghostbusters 2 (1989) and acted in the latter three.
His Hollywood debut came when he collaborated on the script for National Lampoon's National Lampoon's Animal House (1978) which was produced by Ivan Reitman.
By 1976, he was head writer and a regular performer on the top Canadian comedy series SCTV (1976).
Teamed with John Belushi, Gilda Radner and Bill Murray on "The National Lampoon Show" but, unlike the others, was not asked by Lorne Michaels to join Saturday Night Live (1975). Harold went to SCTV (1976) instead.
In 1969, he joined Chicago's Second City's Improvisational Theatre Troupe before moving to New York to help write and perform in "The National Lampoon Show" with other Second City graduates including John Belushi, Gilda Radner and Bill Murray.
Once worked at a public school in Chicago, Illinois (1968). Attempted graduate school for a week, which did not pan out.
Attended and graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri (1966). He later received an honorary degree (Doctor of Arts) from the university (1993).
Attended and graduated from Nicholas Senn High School in Chicago, Illinois (1962).
Born on November 21, 1944 in Chicago, Illinois, Harold Allen Ramis got his start in comedy as Playboy magazine's joke editor and reviewer.
