Doug Larson
Doug Larson (born February 10, 1926) wrote a daily column for the Green Bay Press-Gazette[1] and a weekly column for the Door County Advocate[2] — both Wisconsin-based newspapers. The column was originally syndicated through United Media under the title "Senator Soaper Says"; Larson took over authorship in 1980.[3] Previously, it had been written by Bill Vaughn of the Kansas City Star.[4]
Doug's quotes have been widely circulated on the Internet and occasionally show up on T-shirts. He was born in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin.
