R.I.P. Larry L. King

Texan writer/journalist/playwright Larry L. King, most famous for writing the magazine article that eventually inspired the creation of the Broadway musical The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas -- as well as the 1982 movie of the same name -- and for writing the 1971 memoir Confessions of a White Racist, covered his typewriter for the last time on December 20 at age 83.

He will be missed except for those pitiful few who mistake him for talk show host Larry King.
