Bendik ran several nightclubs throughout the U.S., but predominantly in the Los Angeles area. He was a managing partner of AV and Voyeur/DBA nightclubs.
Sadly, Bendik isn’t the first Glee-connected tragedy. His passing comes just a few days before the anniversary of Cory Monteith's death. The former Glee star had been found in a Vancouver hotel room on July 13, 2013. He had been dating co-star Lea Michele at the time.
