LARRY KING 1933-2021
He grew up in Brooklyn through the Great Depression and became one of the most admired broadcasters of his generation, pulling in more than a million viewers a night. But the curtain has closed for Larry King. Born in 1933, Larry grew up dreaming of becoming a radio star.
“I would lie in bed, look at the radio and I wanted to be on the radio,” he once recalled, but at the age of nine his world came crashing down when his father died of a heart attack. The family was plunged into poverty and when Larry finished high school, he went to work as a milkman instead of enrolling at university, in order to put food on the table.
His radio dreams, however, persisted and after being told there were opportunities for novice radio hosts in Miami, Florida, he packed his bags and never looked back.
