We lost a broadcasting legend this year. Larry King, at 87, had talked to the famous and infamous, the politically powerful, the financially or personally sketchy, showbiz legends and up-and-comers. But as business tycoon and independent political candidate Ross Perot put it, on the show that made it a catch-phrase, "here's the deal:" most tributes have focused on the guests, not on the quick-witted, bluntly opinionated and fun-loving personality and talent of Larry King, which had four hours of room to roam every night on national network radio. So, from the old cassettes that ABC's Chuck Sivertsen recorded, here are some serious, fun and unexpected moments that made Larry King on the radio great.
For Thanksgiving this year, ABC News Radio is Celebrating the Arts. We profile artists, artisans and creators who inspire and enrich our lives. We’ll meet the craftsman turning junked airplanes into works of art and one-of-a kind furniture; the photographer capturing the first moments of connection after coronavirus lockdowns; and the poet whose words bring comfort. We’ll visit the inimitable jazz scene in Kansas City; discover a whole new appreciation for classic television shows; and figure out how to dress for a pandemic. These are the people who bring us joy, who bring us to tears; who make us laugh and feel; and who nourish all of us through their work. Hosted by Aaron Katersky, Celebrating the Arts will bring comfort to your ears and to your soul during these difficult times.
