NEW YORK, NY, October 2, 2013 – Beginning this month, broadcasting legend Larry King will distribute a one minute daily feature "Larry King Droppin' In," brought to you by Toyota. On October 2nd, the daily feature will be available at aarp.org/larryking where a variety of King's audio vignettes will be accessible on AARP's Droppin' In Player.

The "Larry King Droppin' In" series will highlight King's thoughts and personal experiences on a variety of topics as they relate to his 50+ years in broadcasting. The Larry King Cardiac Foundation and Keep Memory Alive will be beneficiaries.

To launch his new relationship with AARP, King will be a featured panelist during the upcoming Life@50+ National Event and Expo on October 5th in Atlanta, Georgia at the Georgia World Congress Center. During the “Life Reimagined Experience,” King will join television anchor /host Jane Pauley and Fast Company cofounder Alan Webber on stage to share his personal connection to the theme “a life reimagined.” The session is based on a new idea from AARP that is centered on a series of experiences-both online and in-person-that guide people through life transitions by helping them discover new possibilities at any age and connect with people that are pursing similar passions and goals.
