John 'Strop' Cornell has died aged 80. 
Cornell is best known for discovering Paul Hogan while working as a producer on TV show A Current Affair in 1971, before later becoming the legendary Australian actor's manager.
According to the Sydney Morning Herald, he passed at his home in Byron Bay while surrounded by his family and children, including his wife Delvene Delaney. 
'A classic Australian character, John Cornell made the lives he touched much richer, not only through donations, but also through his generosity of spirit, humour, humility and honour,' his family said in a statement.
