==Early life==
Larry Bagneris is the son of Gloria Diaz Bagneris and Lawrence Bagneris, Sr., whom ultimately had four children. Larry's brother is notable actor, playwright, and musician Vernel Bagneris. Larry's father was a postal clerk and World War II Veteran. He was described as a playful and cheerful man. Larry's mother was a strongly dedicated mother and manager of the Bagneris house. Vernel described his mother as a "woman who quietly outclassed most people." 〔Wendi Berman: Interview with Vernel Bagneris, 2 March 2007 for The African American National Biography (Oxford 2008).〕
Larry and his family initially resided in the Creole Seventh Ward neighborhood of New Orleans. Due to a U.S. Federal program of "Urban Renewal" of the 1960s, the Bagneris Family relocated to the Gentilly neighborhood of New Orleans. The move came after the family experienced the detrimental impacts of unchecked legislative initiatives that adversely impacted neighborhoods of color. The program was referred to as "The Negro Removal," which saw the creation of a highway overpass through the community that invited crime and drove down the spirits of property of the once vibrant Seventh Ward.
Larry and his brother attended St. Augustine High School in New Orleans. St. Augustine H.S. is an iconic New Orleans parochial school for boys that was founded with the intention of providing the segregated black-male students of New Orleans with a better education than that which was then poorly provided by the New Orleans Public Schools. 〔http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?date=20051225&slug=jdl25〕 It was at St. Augustine that Larry began to realize that he could have a voice in transforming the segregated culture.
