(original interview recorded in 2001)

Dr. Zorba Paster was a familiar voice on public radio for many years as the host of the program "On Your Health." 25 years ago he published what became his most notable book, "The Longevity Code: Your Personal Prescription for a Longer, Sweeter Life" and he passed through Dayton on book tour. He came out to Yellow Springs to do this live interview we had a marvelous time together. He was informative, entertaining, and best of all, a real human being.
