The man, the myth, the legend is a well-worn phrase typically accompanying a story that’s often more myth than legend. Fifteen years after his 2006 retirement following a storied career in senior broadcast and cable leadership positions, Larry’s status as a legend grows as one of the media industry’s more compelling, interesting and beloved figures. Early in my career as a salesperson at WPLJ-FM in New York, Larry joined as my boss. His decision to promote me to Local Sales Manager, a difficult and controversial decision at the time, was a catalyst that led me to CBS-TV and ultimately to MediaVillage and host of Legends & Leaders. I’m confident that all those seeing Larry’s name will be attracted to my video interview like bees to honey.
