R.I.P.: Larry King
Posted: Sat Jan 23, 2021 7:19 pm
Talk show/interviewer extraordinaire Larry King has passed away at age 87. While his politics were too far left for me, the man was certainly in the top tier zone of interviewers. He treated everyone equally, whether a mega star or an ordinary person. And that distinct voice of his... ("What's your question?") R.I.P., Larry King.
I bring it up here because back in 1995, he was briefly engaged to our lovely SW actress Deanna Lund. Larry, at age 61, would have made Deanna wife #6 or 7, depending on who's counting.
He announced plans to wed Deanna, 57, whom he had met five weeks earlier. Larry reportedly spotted Deanna across a room, dining with actress Connie Stevens in L.A., and Cupid struck. The nuptials never came about, of course.
What I remember about all of this was that the news people kept bringing up that Deanna was currently doing infomercials and starred in the '70s TV series Land of the Lost.
