Larry Lujack (born June 6, 1940), a Top 40 Music radio disc jockey who was a precursor to the shock jocks of the 1990s, is known for his sarcastic style, "Klunk letter of the day," and humorous "Animal Stories."

He was born in Iowa as Larry Blankenburg, attended College of Idaho in Caldwell, Washington State University and was a radio disc jockey starting in the early 1960s at KCID in Caldwell. He subsequently worked at several other radio stations but is best known for his antics on Chicago AM radio stations WLS and WCFL.

Though he retired in 1987, shortly after his son from his first marriage died in a traffic accident, Larry began working again in May 2000 for WUBT in Chicago via remote ISDN link from from a New Mexico recording studio. In 1997 he moved from Palatine to the outskirts of Santa Fe, where he plays golf and landscapes. Lujack was inducted into the Illinois Broadcaster Association's Hall of Fame in June 2002.

He's married to Judith (Jude) his second? wife and has 2? children.
