Host Started Career in Radio
Famed talk show host Larry King wasn’t always in front of the camera. Long before joining the In View hosted by Larry King TV series, King got his start in broadcasting by working in radio. After being hired onto a small station in Miami, King worked his way up from maintenance crew member to disc jockey. Being on air also gave him the opportunity to flex his live broadcasting muscles. He started by reporting on current events and sports before taking an interest in interviewing. King loved talking to anyone he met, and he eventually crossed paths with singer Bobby Darin. Darin was the first celebrity King interviewed. Afterward, the public started taking a major interest in King and his radio show. While still working in Miami, King also seized the opportunity to serve as moderator on a local television show. This gave him invaluable experience in arbitrating debates on current events. He would go onto facilitate conversations between major political players.
After his work in Miami, King went onto host a national nightly
radio program in 1978. He was on air from coast to coast covering a variety of
topics. King would interview guests by himself and also invite callers’
questions during the segment. After the interviews, he and callers would discuss
a wide range of topics while King offered his own insight. His radio program
grew to include over 500 affiliates as more and more people took an interest in
Larry King.
