Zabka, who just turned 95, also directed NBC’s ‘The Tonight Show’ for 22 years with three different hosts, and wrote a book about his life in music. He’ll speak for about 15 minutes. The program starts at 10am and ends at 11am at the Grass Valley Veterans Building. There’s also a breakfast at 8am for veterans and their families.
