Upon graduating from high school, Larry entered Wilbur Wright College where he studied theater and film. While in college he self-published his first book "Knight of Darkness" which can be found on Amazon.com and other online major book store retailers.  "A lot of times in life people are very cautious of the steps they take. I say life's a chance take it all", Larry qouted. "Filming is not for everyone. You can't just pick up a camera, and capture the moment you have to have the eye". Now Larry works on his own independent films and videos as well.
