Grass Valley dates from the California Gold Rush, as does nearby Nevada City. It is the location of the Empire Mine, one of the richest mines in California. Grass Valley is at the intersection of California State Route 49 and State Route 20 (California). Public transportation is limited to the urban areas. The Grass Valley Group is a research and development company founded in the city in 1958, specializing in video amplifiers and mixers. Some of their technology was used in the 1977 film Star Wars. The company is now a subsidiary of Thomson SA. Well-known people associated with Grass Valley include the ace fighter pilot Chuck Yeager, philosopher Josiah Royce, the 19th century actress Lotta Crabtree, 19th century dancer Lola Montez, actor Jeremy Sisto, author John Thomson, professional skateboarder Chris Senn and bassist of the band AFI, Hunter Burgan. On May 15, 1902 in a field outside Grass Valley, Lyman Gilmore reportedly became the first person to fly a powered airplane. -- Source: Wikipedia.com
