Radio Talker Larry Elder To Get Hollywood WOF Star

Larry Elder
When Larry Elder was a boy growing up in Los Angeles, his older brother would sometimes take him for a walk down Hollywood Boulevard and point out various celebrities’ stars on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Now, after 21 years of hosting a popular talk-radio show, Elder is set to join that pantheon of stars. The conservative author and radio personality will receive his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame during an April 27 ceremony, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce has announced.

“Never in my wildest imagination did I ever think I’d end up being there. I mean, it literally is out-of-body,” Elder, the author of “Dear Father, Dear Son: Two Lives … Eight Hours,” told WND in an interview.

Each year, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce awards Walk of Fame stars to notable figures in the categories of television, motion pictures, recording, live theater and radio. Out of the 30 entertainers who will receive a star in 2015, Elder is the only one in the radio category.

In fact, Elder will be only the fifth political, talk-radio host to receive a star, following Bill Cunningham, Dan Avey, Ray Briem and Bill Handel.

Elder’s new star will be at 6270 Hollywood Boulevard. Guest speakers at the April 27 ceremony will include actors Dean Cain and Jon Voight, and conservative radio host Dennis Prager.
