Lawrence Malcolm "Larry" Nadle (September 29, 1913 in Manhattan - December 26, 1963) (sometimes credited as Larry Nadel) was a comic book editor and writer who was known for his work for DC Comics' romance comics, celebrity comics, and other humor-centric titles.
Todd Klein has noted that Nadle's career in comics began "around 1943-44", as an editor for All-American Publications.Nadle also wrote scripts for radio and television, and (under the joint pseudonym "Bob Lawrence", which he shared with cartoonist Bob Oksner) produced the comic strip version of the situation comedy I Love Lucy.
As well, he served as Robert Lewis May's ghost writer on the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer comic strip, and created the character "Yankee Doodle Dandy" (although, due to Nadle's sudden death, the character went unpublished until Grant Morrison repurposed him in 1992).
