Larry Harmon [Lawrence Weiss 1925-2008] was born in Toledo, Ohio and raised in Cleveland. During World War II, he served as a private in the Army. Upon returning, he harbored dreams of becoming a doctor, until he met legendary entertainer Al Jolson. According to Harmon’s autobiography, The Man Behind the Nose, Jolson told him, “Being a doctor of medicine is honorable, but you’ll touch so many more lives as a doctor of laughter!” Harmon instead attended the University of Southern California, where he majored in theater and performed in the Spirit of Troy marching band.
