Beginning in January, youcan also download a printable version of our television and radio schedule,so please make sure that we have your current email address.
As we head into 2010 and the start of our 50th year here in Georgia, I’d firstlike to reflect on what an amazing year 2009 has been! GPB is the largestmedia company in Georgia, and when I joined this organization, I learned thatit was also the busiest media company in Georgia! GPB began 2009 withcomprehensive team coverage of the Georgia legislative session with Law-makers on radio, television and the web.
January also marked an exciting initiative on radio with StoryCorps. GPBhosted the StoryCorp’s traveling windstream trailer in historic Savannah,Georgia, reaching out to town residents as well as unique voices from theGullah Geechee and coastal communities. Back in Atlanta, we began our workin advance of the premeire of filmmaker Ken Burns’s newest film, The Na-tional Parks: America’s Best Idea. GPB pulled together a wide coalition ofpeople whose stories were featured in the Burns film: African Americans, Na-tive Americans and Asian Americans. We worked with a similar coalition inFebruary to inform viewers about digital conversion. GPB partnered with theLeadership Coalition on Civil Rights to help educate and inform all Georgiansabout this important change to their delivery of over the air television.
GPB partners to bring Georgians the incredible performance series each yearfrom the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, and this year we invited the top per-formers with the Atlanta Youth Symphony Orchestra to GPB to record their
performance audition tapes. GPB underwrote the cost of providing profes-sional digital recordings to each child.
March found GPB on the road to Columbus, GA, where we hosted the EstonianNational Symphony Orchestra and celebrated pianist, Joyce Yang, precededby a VIP reception for GPB Members. In Atlanta, we hosted noted NativeAmerican director Chris Eyre for an event focusing on the “Trail Of Tears”episode in the We Shall Remain series from PBS’s American Experience.GPB reached out to the Cherokee community and filled the house for this im-portant screening and panel discussion. April was busy with a visit from PBSNewshour’s Gwen Ifill. That same month, GPB premiered an original film tack-ling the issue of child abuse, The Road Beyond Abuse, narrated by JaneFonda.
May marked a busy and exciting time for GPB. Ken Burns and National ParkRanger Sheldon Johnson introduced scenes from Burns’ new film, The Na-tional Parks: America’s Best Idea and attended a private reception for GPBmembers.
In June, our education team partnered with Communities in Schools andhosted the screening of the film The Soloist. Kids from area non-traditionalschools participated in a talent show at GPB.
In June, we launched a new inititiative with our partner Aetna to raise aware-ness about childhood obesity. We produced an original program, GeorgiaWeighs In: A Childhood Obesity Special. Broadcast live on televisionstatewide, and streamed live, the program reached out to all Georgians. Ex-perts recruited through the Georgia Department of Community Health tookviewer phone calls and participated in an online chat to provide resources. Inaddition, the initiative has also included visits to Savannah, Augusta, Maconand Atlanta with our spokesperson for this effort, Doc Neil the Banana Peel,(a.ka. Dr. Neil Shulman, M.D.) who takes his message of happy health to kidsin witty and interactive performances. GPB also aired a 5-part radio series

and hosted a lunch for area health care professionals on the subject of child-hood obesity.
In this changing economy, GPB has been there with information and assis-tance. Job Fair 2009 was multi-platform event providing information andresources about employment to Georgians and resulted in hundreds of callsand outreach. Similarly, in July, GPB partnered with the Consumer CreditCounseling Service on another multi-platform initiative, Facing The Mort-gage Crisis, again answering a need in our communities for reputable infor-mation and resources when facing a mortgage crisis.
Back to school spelled more great work with GPB in education. Georgia StateSchool Superintendent Cathy Cox announced a new initiative in partnershipwith GPB that will provide professional development opportunities to stateeducators through PBS Teacherline.
September also inspired us to go Jurassic over the new Jim Henson show,Dinosaur Train. GPB created a week of dinosaur programming around thelaunch, including episodes of Nature and NOVA, and an original GPB produc-tion, Georgiasaurs. To launch the special week of programming, GPB hosteda family fun event, “Doughnuts and Dinosaurs,” complete with a visit fromBuddy the T-Rex from Dinosaur Train. That same week, Discovery Educationcame and trained hundreds of Georgia teachers on digital media content, andtreated area educators to a discussion with ocean life documentarian PhilippeCousteau.
Going back to school, also means enjoying the excitement of high schoolsports. This year, GPB brought back its highly popular Football Fridays inGeorgia, a web initiative that allows people to view games, share photos,participate in chats and enjoy all the behind-the-scenes action of the games.
October ushered in gorgeous fall leaves and the return of season three for
Georgia Traveler, as they took the road in a special Halloween episode totour haunted homes in Savannah and Americus, GA.
In November, GPB hosted a member party with Curious Georgia at ImagineIt! The Children’s Museum of Atlanta. Next, GPB headed to the Savannah BookFestival with Doc Neil and PBS Kids host Miss Rosa in a joint effort to promoteHappy Healthy Kids and GPB resources for educators.
Speaking of kids, We had a lot of good news for kids and families in 2009!GPB launched a new series of short original programs called Slangman’sWorld, that teaches kids about world languages and culture through music,magic and fun. Kids were also entertained by a new series of Doc Neil theBanana Peel episodes focusing on healthy eating habits and exercise. Alsolook for Laughing Pizza, a wonderful series of fun-filled songs with positivemessages for kids, and check out our newest addition for kids, Professor Ri-dley, a fun loving Paleontologist with dinosaur games! Check out the gamesat gpbkids.org and come back in January when we introduce our new GPBKids page, where you can enter to win free ice cream just for signing up forthe birthday club!
