In 1989, without a dime in his pocket, Larry moved to Los Angeles. Having no experience in radio, he started at the bottom as a part-time call screener at KFI AM 640. Within two years, he worked his way up to become the producer of The Tom Leykis Show, Los Angeles' number one afternoon drive radio show. When The Tom Leykis Show moved to WRKO AM 680 in Boston, he moved back East and brought the show from twelfth place to second place in only three months.

In 1994, he took a job as associate producer at the CBS Radio Network's Gil Gross Show based in New York City. After two years, he decided to test the waters of daytime talk television and worked as an associate producer at The Montel Williams Show and later at The Maury Povich Show.

Larry has a strong passion for independent travel. He has been to all 50 states and 89 countries. Places off the beaten path are especially appealing...such as Afghanistan, Colombia, Iraqi Kurdistan, Kosovo, Lebanon, Pakistan, Syria, Turkmenistan, and the West Bank & Gaza Strip. Friends and peers are continually amazed with his incredible sense of direction and impressive collection of maps.

Few people can brag of their own "stupid human trick." Larry can play music on his teeth by striking the back of his thumbnail forcefully against his front tooth. He plays many perennial favorites in perfect tempo. In 1997, he appeared as a guest on Oddville, MTV. On February 15, 2001, he was a guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. In June 2007 he appeared dressed as a giant hand in The Pennsylvania Hand Band on NBC's summer hit America's Got Talent.

Instead of going to college, Larry has educated himself by immersing himself in countless books, newspapers and magazines. As a result, he is knowledgeable about a variety of subjects, and he holds a strong belief that life experience is the best teacher.
