Synopsis

For a half-century, the world's most influential figures told their story to Larry King. One of the most famous personalities in television history—whose trademark suspenders and unmistakable voice were known to millions around the world—King reveals nearly all in this intimate and riveting memoir. He delves deeply into his extraordinary personal odyssey, beginning with the loss of his father when Larry was only nine years old, and recounts growing up in Depression-era Brooklyn. Over the years, Larry was fired, incarcerated, and survived not only a heart attack and quintuple bypass surgery, but several marriages. Filled with delightfully evocative personal anecdotes and behind-the-scenes observations about some of our most important world figures, the inimitable King tells his colorful story with humor and candor.
