This comment from Laurence Cohen is making the rounds:
…after 16 years, my regular Courant column-writing days are over. Still doing columns for Hart. Business Journal, Waterbury R-A, and Banker & Tradesman, in Boston.
Larry has been writing for The Courant in some capacity or another for a long, long time; and of course everyone’s tenure must end sometime. It just seems like most of the recent endings are for the wrong reasons.

Anyway, Larry, please forgive the resurrection of this photo from the collection of Henry McNulty. It was taken, I’m guessing, in the 70s, when the Courant was at the beginning of a long upward climb in popularity, influence and profitability.

Congrats, Larry, on a great long run!

PS And the late, great Courant sportswriter Frank Keyes knew how to pick’em when he spotted “Kid Vestibule” as an up-and-comer!

With fond memories and all best for the future,

Yes, this picture was taken in the early afternoon of September 16, 1977, in what then was the Life/style Department.
I also would like to wish Larry well. I always enjoyed reading his columns.
Did anyone on this site know John Mongillo???? omG omG omG … major loss for the Connecticut photojournalism scene …
Good luck, Larry. Your stuff always added spice to the opinion pages.
