FAU Professor Started Whitney Houston's Career

Whitney Houston passed away over the weekend, as everyone knows, but here’s something most people don’t know.
 
Houston first started singing professionally at 15 years old in the Michael Zager Band.
 
Zager is currently a professor at Florida Atlantic University.
 
Houston’s first ever solo, “Life’s a party,” was performed while she was a part of the Michael Zager Band and is currently displayed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum.
 
While Zager enjoyed watching her rise to fame it hurt him to see Houston’s recent struggles.
 
Here’s Whitney at the top of her game singing the Star Spangled Banner before Super Bowl XXV in 1991.
