Larry King

I listened to Larry King on the radio long before I first met him, in 1988.  That was actually the first of several interviews I did with King, who passed away the other day at age 87.  Larry King was a legend in radio and television. Whether you like them or not, you had to acknowledge he had Broad and deep influence in broadcasting.  Larry did tens of thousands of interviews over the years, often with VIPs and celebrities who would talk to no one else. And even though I was still in the "minor leagues" while Larry was a major league all-star, he treated me like we were equal colleagues. That's one of the things I liked best about him.
