"To America With Love"
Hosted by Myron Floren and Norma Zimmer
ORIGINAL AIR DATE: PBS Special Filmed in Branson 1997

The musical gifts that Lawrence Welk offered "To America With Love" came in
many styles and this great show highlights them. Hosted by Myron Floren and
Norma Zimmer and starring 16 Musical Family Stars sing and dance their way
through the best of 20th century American music, including Big Band Favorites,
pop entertainment standards, patriotic classics, and inspirational masterpieces.
