Pro Football Hall of Fame Member and Humorous Motivational Speaker

Larry Csonka established power running a legitimate threat in the NFL of the 1970’s. As a player with the Miami Dolphins he charged so tenaciously through defenses that his name became a household word and his nickname, ZONK, became a new American verb.  From 1971-1973, Larry Csonka led the Dolphins to three Super Bowl appearances earning All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors along the way. Csonka earned the MVP award of the Dolphins’ Super Bowl VIII victory, was a key player in the Dolphins’ and the NFL’s only perfect season in 1972 and was enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1987.

Media

Following football, Larry has remained in the public eye through national commercial ads, numerous celebrity guest appearances and host of the original popular competition series, American Gladiators.   Most recently, he and longtime partner, Audrey Bradshaw, hosted and produced the outdoor adventure / travelogue series, “North to Alaska,” a top-rated, nationally televised program that aired on the NBC Sports Network.  For 16 years, this popular series showcased adventures in the Last Frontier, its people, culture, wildlife, rich history and Larry’s enthusiasm for outdoor sports and conservation. On YouTube, you’ll find The ZONK! Channel with original programming from his “North to Alaska” series and his NFL mini-documentary,  “The Path to Perfection.”
