Description:

The definitive autobiography of one of the most famous personalities in television history-an intimate, revealing, and riveting memoir that will show a Larry King the world has never known, up close and personal.

Celebrated as "the most remarkable talk-show host on TV ever" by TV Guide and "master of the mike" by Time magazine, for a half-century the world's most influential figures have been telling their story to Larry King. Now the man in suspenders shares his riveting and inspiring story, from his humble roots in Depression-era Brooklyn to the heights of celebrity as host of CNN's Larry King Live.

Before he befriended presidents and iconic entertainers, Larry grew up on the streets of Brooklyn, where he was known to friends as "Zeke the Greek the Mouthpiece" because he never stopped talking. Larry delves deeply into his extraordinary personal odyssey, beginning with the loss of his father at age nine. He has lost jobs, had a three-pack-a-day smoking habit, been down to his last $2 when he won an $8,000 trifecta at the racetrack, had a heart attack and quintuple bypass surgery, quit smoking, founded a heart foundation that has raised millions and assisted thousands, and now, at the age of seventy-five, has recently gotten thrown out of a Little League game for arguing a call in defense of his nine-year-old son.

Filled with delightfully evocative personal anecdotes and behind-the-scenes observations on some of our most important world figures, What Am I Doing Here? will be devoured by Larry King's millions of fans worldwide.

This book had me entertained from start to finish. I really enjoyed all Larry's stories from Frank Sinatra to his own family members. He seemed to be at the epicentre of the last 50 years of American history. I would recommend this book to people of all ages.

5Larry King is a sheer RIOT!  Sep 26, 2009
This is one of the best autobiographies I've ever read!
Who knew this suspender-wearing host was such a prankster and just outright hilarious!
Kudos, Mr. Larry Zeiger!!




5Educational & entertaining read  Sep 05, 2009
From Brooklyn to a media icon - if not a remarkable journey, then at the very least, an entertaining read. Have to admit, I have never been a Larry King fan, but having read the book, I have a much better appreciation for his work, and his contributions. For one, Larry King is definitely one of the best interviewers I've seen, and his insights on this craft are worth the read alone. For the full experience consider getting the book in audio format as it is read by the author. You will enjoy plenty of great anecdotes and insights into the lives of some of the key public figures of the last century.

4My Questions for Larry King  Aug 31, 2009
I liked this book as I have always liked King & his non-judmental sytle, but it left me wanting a few of my own questions answered:

1. What happened to his mother and aunt and why didn't he write more about them? It's like they fell off the face of the earth very early on in the book & he never mentioned them again.

2. When he chose to have children so late in life did it ever occur to him that he would be "abandoning" them at a young age like his own father did?
