Retirement Living TV's John Palmer Available for Interviews

BALTIMORE, March 3, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Renowned Journalist John Palmer is hosting The Spirit of America sponsored by Physicians Mutual, a new series showcasing seniors who have approached retirement not as a finishing line, but as a starting post, finding ways of using their experience, their talents, and their hard-won wisdom to give their communities a brighter future while doing what they love best.

Hosted by John Palmer, the former news anchor for The Today Show and a 40-year veteran journalist, The Spirit of America travels across the country to discover ordinary people finding ways to turn their new freedom into an opportunity for starting a whole new life, one that is based on improving the lives of others.   We'll meet folks like Bill, who still plays ice hockey well into his eighties - even though he has two replacement hips, Mary Anne who creates contemporary art masterpieces and connects with her Granddaughters through quilting, and Fran, a cancer survivor who created an organization to help find missing and abducted children. Ordinary people living extraordinary lives – and their stories will only be found on The Spirit of America.

If you are interested in interviewing John Palmer or would like further information please contact Hali Simon at [email protected]

The Spirit of America premieres on RLTV Monday, March 7 at 9:00 PM and moves to its regular time period, Thursdays at 8 PM, on March 10.
