He also crossed paths with Jack Ruby and was involved peripherally in the JFK assassination investigation through his close connection to Carlos Marcello. Larry talks with Bradley Lewis about his new biography of Cohen Hollywood's Celebrity Gangster: The Incredible Life and Times of Mickey Cohen (Enigma Books) that tells the story of one of the toughest gangsters America ever produced.
